hi i currently drive a lotus elise but am selling her soon as just need a change of scenery really, had my mind set on a tvr but not sure if i want to spend £££ on maintaining her, just saw top gear mag and like the look of the new wrx sti, and just wondered if it is a good car and if anyone has any info on the car, i would be getting the prodrive 300bhp upgrade.
the price seens really good value at £26990 and sounds easy to maintain, just want to know though if the re sale value is good or do they depreciate alot?
many thanks for all your help

Hi

You can get one cheaper than that, and a UK car too! Email me as per profile and i'll pass you on a contact number. It is all legal though....some dealers will discount!

Resale used to be rock solid but taking a bit of a hit these days, all cars are.

I'll go along with that - the top-end cars seem to be hit worse.

I bought my P1 just over 2 years ago sucure in the knowledge it'd hold its value come trade-in time.

Now my £31995 car is only worth around £20k - with only 8600 miles on it.

Bu99er really as there's a Tuscan out there with my name on it

I have had a few emails about this so will post this info on here.

For a good price contact Ian at Stan Palmers Subaru (Carlisle). Even if you are not local he will arange delivery of your car on a trailer.

Nothing to do with this garage but they have given me great service and why not pass on those experiences....

I know your looking to spend top dollar but the STi's are awesome whatever the year or price.
