Is there a European HQ for Subaru, who controls all the European national importers? If so, does anyone have the contact details?

I'd just like to go one step higher than our national importer in Portugal, but don't feel confident enough to write to Japan directly. Mainly I'd like to raise the matter of price competition within Europe.

I know this is mainly a UK BBS, but maybe Theo, Hunk etc can help.

Thanks for anyone's help

Don't think so - IM (UK) deals direct with Japan, Vilvoorde (BE) now controls BE and NL...

Bum.

Thanks Nick.

Off to book meself a MY02+PPP test drive now... and compare it with a 330D, which I can get for about 2 grand more!

330D for a good price? Could you drop me a mail ?

When you've recovered, it's because I get diplomatic discount - so it may not apply to you! Sorry!

If I am still undecided after driving both, I'll ask the Panel's opinions. Need for speed suggests one, but financial sense clearly points to the other. Will let you know in a week or so!
