If you saw this on the Subaru UK site then surely this is full list price? I don't know anyone who's paid list price for any brand new car.

Europa Subaru have the new saloon STi on their site for £27,590, linky.

Well if you think about £5 a week extra on all your bills then the tax hike kinda makes sense to put others off.

Think you'll find that price is for the hatch. Doubt you will find the saloon with too much discount yet.

£950 for the first year road tax on a new car, add in the sales taxes and it's not such a surprise new cars sales are struggling.
