I'm looking at getting a WRX but I am worried about getting hold of parts and servicing. Has anyone experienced any of these problems or have people found it quite easy to run these cars as you could with a UK model.
Thanks - Matt

Enough people do parts for these cars, servicing is done by speciallists normally and there are enough around.
The down side is that they run on super unleaded only (pref with octane booster) and as per any scoob drink loads oh and that insurance thing comes into it somewhere, normally through the roof
Being a performace car, expect expense, (servicing is twice yearly!!) tyres can cost and you will want to start upgrading parts pretty quickly (brakes being the main thing).
Hope this helps

Try lookin at my site www.wrx.co.uk, plenty of suppliers around, couple of years ago I bought a WRX RA engine for 1,000 + VAT 24 hour delivery, no probs.

Oh, and my car is for sale, look at the private threads.
