Default OMG Price of Subarus

Back in Feb of this year I was looking into buying a Uk or EU MY07/08 2.5L WRX saloon for around £14-15k but i ended up buying a Saab 93 Convertible (dont ask ) any way i've just looked at the prices of Subarus WRX again because I'm really bored of the Saab and I shocked to see how much they have priced

seen some MY07 WRX for as little as £11k

What you should be asking is how much is your Saab worth....most likely it will have dropped significantly too I'm afraid.

its because of motorpoint
Hardly, its more likely to be because the price of fuel has gone through the roof, coupled with the fact that insurance is a nightmare, factor in that you can pick up a new or almost newe hot hatch that pushing 200bhp that will muller a scoob in all but the pissing wet, also take into consideration that the market was absolutley flooded a few years ago as more and more firms offered better car allowance so people were more willing to take a punt on a subaru and finally consider that the cct is based on emissions and stis aint that eco lol.

But sure, if you want, blame motorpoint
