just been on subaru.co.uk and seen that they are doing wrx type uk.

Special Edition Impreza 2.5 WRX Type UK and WRX SL Type UK Saloon.

Available in limited quantities for vehicles ordered and registered between 1st April and 30th June 2006.Special edition features :

• RAC Trackstar with 1 year's free membership
• SmartNav satellite navigation system and touch screen with 1 year's free membership and 3 months' subscription to Safespeed.

• Subaru Bluetooth handfree phone kit
• 5 year's Warranty *
• 5 years' Europe wide roadside assistance package
• 5 years' free servicing *
• Type UK external badging

looks like they are struggling to sell them - but that seems a great deal!

 

Deal is so good they dont even put a price on it ...... I will offer £5 and four used pairs of socks.....

 

its £20,945 - the same price as standard wrx! only in saloon, not wagon

 

I enquired about this at my local dealer - following a bit of pressure to haggle, he admitted that all these new goodies have also meant a cut in margin and there was little movement in the list price.....

 

You would think that with a name like 'Type UK' they would give it some actual mechanical goodies like uprated springs, bigger alloys. PPP or something. Not just a load of 'get out clause' servicing, cheap peripherals and 'external badging', please
