Cool

Anyone seen any UK300s for sale?

How much are they going for now? What are they - 18 months old?

Thinking of part Xing the scoob up in the summer and love the look of the UK300.

Was the UK300 a Prodrive car?
If not, were any PPP'd?

UK300 aint 18 months old, thought they only came out in June-July, think there were a few mentioned at about 28000 ??? which is more than when I got mine brand new !! is that right ?

PPP was an extra, I think most people would of got it, makes the car so much better !!

Got mine Last July and PPP'd in September (no 231). Adams of Aylesbury had one on the forecourt for 27K minus a fiver, and a dealer Shipston way had one for 28K minus a fiver. I have seen some on the net (autotrader etc) going for about 25K privately.

Many were prodrived by their owners, according to the dealer they expected an uptake of 10 percent, but were caught out by demand, which exceeded 40 percent when the cars were ordered.

It will be interesting to see what price they do hold in light of the STI, but at the moment Adams want more for a 2nd hand UK300 in respect to an STI brand new

Carpet, no doubt they are not offering anything like the outrageous resale price on trade in. I would hazard a guess at about 20ish at trade, if privately they are being offered at the 24K mark. I did ask my local dealer to do a straight swap (they had the 27K one, with 6K on the clock) and he choked considerably, got to try though haven't you

Cheers

Jason,

I'm stuck like you PPP my UK300 or go for the STi.

Mines only got 2300 miles an I got offered a pi**y £22k.

Drove the STi on Saturday and it is f'n quick, only had 365miles on the clock so didn't abuse it too much. Much bumpier and more road noise than the UK300 too!
