Default LHD BUGEYE

Hi all,
having real problems trying to sell my wrx 2002 bugeye on UK registration plates. Its only 0n 40k miles, 18inch mille miglia gold alloys...........should I consider breaking the car for spares?.........The thought makes me shiver but I need to sell it......any suggestions welcome. Car currently in Italy. Yes I have a COC/tech sheet V5 etc.

Cheers all

So it's LHD on UK plates in Italy.
Why?
Why not get it Italian plates and try and sell it?
Are there issues with this like Tax etc?

Hi Shaun,

It has a 2 litre Turbo-224 bhp ,(declared on tech sheet and coc) but better refined interior than EU spec.

Yep. The Newage in the US dropped the 2.5 and fitted the EJ20 with 227 BHP at the launch in 2001 but torque was the same as the UK. The 2.5 was retained for the NA versions and rated at 165 BHP.
