Hiya guys, just a newbie after a bit of advice.
I'm thinking of buying an 06 WRX import from malta.
It's already in this country with 1 owner 7,500 miles on the clock and is up for £14,999.
Do you think it is worth it, and are there any major differances between this and an UK spec one.
Awaiting your Knowledgable replys, an concerned first time buyer

 

i bought one from a car dealer in belfast but brand new for £16,000. Make sure its got a uk spec such as impact bars,alarm.imobliser etc apart from that great car with pop up headlamp washers xenons good luck.

 

My advice is don't buy it when you can get a brand new one from motordepot.co.uk for the same money - even allowing for purchase of cat 1 alarm to bring to UK security standard.

 

Or even all brands new are doing them for £13999 or cheaper.

shop around, that one is way to expensive.

Mac

 

As the others have said you can get Euro Imports from Motorpoint or All brands New cheaper than that...Maybe if it was a UK model it would be worth that price but not an Import.

 

Thanks for your advice guys, thats me off to do some internet browsing then, Ta very much

 

All brands new advertise on here so keep an eye out for their link. They are from £13,995 and i got mine from them. Good service and the car is UK spec other than no locking wheel nuts, alarm and side airbags, which you dont want because the seats have to be wider and dont hold you properly. Uk insurance companies class them as UK cars too.

DONT pay £14,995 for a second hand car, £13k max!

Don't knock the seats with the side airbags because:

a). Some of us think that side airbags are a good safety feature.
b). Some of us are built big (6'4" and 18st) and the buckets are just too narrow.

 

Another vote for ALL BRAND NEW (Motordepot)

Got my car from them six monts ago.

Top notch service.

 

[QUOTE=Microstar;6861994]Fair point, cant fault the use of airbags but still think that the seats without are better from my perspective, horses for courses as they say
