What's it Worth 28k WR1

[Paul N]

OK, not sure yet, but think the WR1 will be going this year, what's it worth?

2 owners
Full Subaru Service History
May 04
28k miles
Very tidy standard car

Want the new shape at some point, going for a run out on Sunday but think we'll be waiting for Prodrive to breath on it

What's the WR1 worth as a trade in against the new car & what's it worth as a private sale?

All opinions welcome
Cheers
Paul

[Paul N]

Thanks gents, will see what happens at the weekend, to be honest think we'll be waiting for the Prodrive 08, just wanted an idea on prices

[WR 1mposter]

Paul they are bound to release a Mcrae special, personally i'd wait for that, Someone somewhere nows when an if

[Robocop]

That's what were hoping for, but want to drive the standard car to see what it's like Want a price off them but to be honest we both know if we change now we'll probaly regret it

Kev WR1 taxed until end of the year lol

Best buy a MY08 asap then, before they cost the Earth to tax.

[WR 1mposter]

Would I be right in thinking a new jap import would be cheaper to tax than a uk model ?

[Robocop]

No

[WR 1mposter]

No

How much do you pay Kev ?

[Paul N]

Prodrive version should be here before the £950 1 off tax bill starts...........I hope

[Robocop]

£205 this year £440 next year.
I was in band F registered before March ? 2006, but rebanded next year.

Ours is £205 this year, no way its going up to £440

[steff109]

sorry to disappoint but 14k-15k on a trade in and if you are lucky 16k private but be prepared to wait for it

[Paul N]

Was hoping about 15k if I'm honest, just wondered if we were been optimistic, if the price is too low we keep it another year, nothing wrong with the car just fancy the new model It's had it's big depreciation, can't see another year making too much difference

He's going to have to work hard to sell us it, like Imposter says think best to hang on 6 months for the Prodrive version.............then ours will be worth less

[WR 1mposter]

Passed our local subaru supermarket today called in to see if the new sti was in and to book a demo, they have 1 ONE UNO subaru saleperson in the dealership, was in there for 20 minutes while he chatted away to an elderly couple, then low and behold a ford salesperson came in and asked if they could help so got to see the new sti in silver in bog standard trim, asked what extras available....erm dont know I only sell fords, asked if I could take a test drive on sunday....erm no we only have 1 subaru salesperson and he has sundays off, but you can on saturday providing there is a slot, could you find out what times for available for saturday then....erm not at the minute the subaru saleman his busy.................................................................................................................................................................................

Not good, must admit the salesman is actually coming in early for us Sunday, says must come with us on test drive

Usually go to another dealer miles away due to excellent customer service, but despite aparantly been on their mailing list for the new STI, heard nothing from them, so will give local dealer a try, least they have made an effort

Mind if we went to usual dealer sure he would just throw me the keys, always has before

Same here test drive with a passenger

[Paul N]

Well, took the 08 out this morning, impressed with it, now got a difficult decision to make, dealer recons he can give me what we want for the car, confirming tomorrow, just need to decide do we jump now or wait for the Prodrive version & I'm very tempted to go for it now

Thanks for the offers on the car, but being totally honest, dealer has beaten them

[WR 1mposter]

Decisions Decisions Paul

You may decide to got for it now, and be pleased with the new sti.....
but regret it at a later date if a mcrae version comes about, ie losing a lot of dosh trading it back in.

Personally a special editon will be on the cards eventually, my choice would to be wait for it. It may be a 6/12 months away though.

[Paul N]

Yep, know exactly what your saying, but also need to consider Debbie will be driving it day to day, already put 14k on the P1 in 10 months

Need something a touch newer, so the P1 can be semi retired but not sold, made that mistake once before also got a trip to Corsica & Finland this year, could have 20k on the clock in 12 months

We'll see
