Cool

Hi,

We have now updated our website with loads of information on new UK spec STIs, WRXs and Performance packs. So I hope this will answer some of your questions We'd love to know what you think of it

www.litimports.co.uk/subaru

We seem to have had some problems with our new ISP recently and would like to know if anyone experiences any problems with accessing our site.

Regards

Iain

you could say that.

II ahve said it before but I dont mind saying it again, iain is without doubt the nicest salesman I have ever dealt with, to the point where sales man and iain should not be mentioned in the same sentence (like they just have been twice!).

I wanted an sti 5 type r, and had let a few friends know about it. Whilst on holiday a 22B became available through iain that my friends had thougth I migth be interested in, so they forwarded my name it iain.

He rang me in spain knowing I was expecting the call, and I agreed to buy it over the phone. After my call, Iain had better offers on the car from a certain @rsehole on this board whose name I wont mention, yet without a deposit from me, just my word that I would buy it, he honoured the sale to me at the lower price.

Needless to say he is a man of veryu high integrity and a enguine car enthusiast, to the extent that we have now become friends separate from the fact that he sold me car.

I have bought several cars in my time, and can honestly say, that I have never made friends with a car salesman before. That to me is testimony enough of him and his company.

Litchfield Imports sourced both my scoobies.

I have found Iain at Litchfield Imports to be one of the genuinely "good guys" out there. My dealings with him have proved to me that he actually cares about the customer, which is an attribute that can be hard to find these days.

Iain is importing a Toyota Yaris SR for me and the missus at the mo and I can honestly say he and Neil have been superb.

A very good price, and unlike any other sales person in the Universe, when they say they will call back, they do. I have recommended Litchfield to people in the past and I will continue to do so. I will even buy my STi/Evo from them (when i have the money - give me a few years hahahaha)

Hi Tony,

I think Subaru fit Sigma CAT 1 Alarms?? but we fit Cobras which have a cooler looking fob

The Warrenty is 2 years extendable to 3years for £199

Ian,

Are all the options listed for the WRX including fitting? And what sort of delivery time are you looking for after paying the deposit?

Thanks,

Simon.

Hi Simon,

The delivery time for a WRX is about 5 months and the STI's are about 8 weeks. The options for the WRX do include fitting

Ouch 5 months - is that worst case scenario or just going on current delivery times?

I might have to think about ordering before I go on holiday to while some of the time away. Will sort out my bank loan this week and probably give you a call on weds or thurs Ian.

Simon.

Did he supply the wheels or did you get those done after? I just ask as Im after the 17" OZ P1 Alloys in Anthracite on my WRX and would rather get the car with them on when I pick it up than drive around with those naff standard wheels.
