Sorry if this has been discussed before, but I couldn't find what i was after seaching the forum.

I'm looking to change my 1998 M3 evolution for an import myo6 WRX. After searching the net I've found the following quoted prices

Allbrandnew - £15,999
Virgin - £16,999
Motorpoint - £16,999

Has anyone used these dealers before and if so can any be recommeded.

Also:

Would I be the first owner on the log book?
Anyone know which countries the cars are imported from?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Are you concerned about getting a warranty?

I thought you were still covered by the warranty if you resitered the car with subaru

Thanks for the link. The warranty issue seems quite a recent problem. When I phoned motor point today they still offered a three year warranty. I'll check with the other dealers including Alliance and Litchfiled.

^^^ 6 weeks now, i still have no confirmation of warranty from Subaru UK. Be VERY wary.

HOWY

My car was provided by alliance and I am the first registered owner IM has registered the car for pan eiuropean warranty though I haven't put them to the test yet. I would suggest that if you are going to purchase one from any importer you get them to put in writing that the car will come with a Subaru pan european warranty as if not your claim will be against the supplier not subaru!

I bought my 05 WRX from Virgin cars . I am the second owner , and the country of origin is Cyprus . As mentioned by Darko be wary , ask for written confirmation on the warranty issue , as this problem is hotting up.
It takes about 6 weeks before you get the V5 logbook, then when you get it a copy of it has to be sent back to Virgin cars in order for you to receive you service book which takes about 4 weeks to arrive.
Hope this has helped
