**TYPE UK V JDM**
After some sound advise from people on here who seem to know what they're talking about. What are the pro's and cons between a Type UK and a JDM scooby, I know JDM's have more bhp, but what else, is the interior better, more toys to play with ?? what about re-sale, some of you maybe aware my v6 99 is for sale on here, and its an import, and i'm not having much luck selling it, just thinking if i buy another import, I'm gonna be in the same situation in a few years. Any help please.
Also, I can't get 100 ron around here (Chippenham)

From what I have seen imports cost more to insure. Something to do with the different climate or something. Imports rust quicker or something. I could be wrong.

Insurance has pretty much levelled off for UK STi v JDM, i was quoted the same for a type UK as i was for a JDM MY03.
Cons though.
Still need 6 month 7.5k service intervals on the JDM
Need 100 ron fuel
Thats about it, everything else is better
especially the engine

my insurance was cheaper on a new jdm sti than it was on a uk300! Aplan will sort you out with a good policy and the cars are better in every way
