Hello all,
Just to inform you that Robinsons of Rochdale 01706 716655 are having a MONSTER sale weekend the 14th & 15Th September.
I have just picked up a BRAND NEW set of STi7 alloys with tyres (all original spec) for £595 for 4 including VAT.These were not in the sale, but just priced very competativley.

Who says STI7 alloys are worth a £1000 second hand?

They have one set of STi7 wheels and tyres, 3 sets of STi7 headlamps, several complete STi7 exhausts sytems (the tailpipe will fit a WRX bugeye) to get rid of the twin outlet tailpipe.
They have a set of WRX 17" MY01/02 alloys with tyres.
A couple of MY01/02 WRX turbo rear spoilers in WR blue.

All above bits BRAND NEW and very cheap.

Additionally they have sets of alloys from MY99/99, MY00, Speedline Comp 2? etc etc, second hand and very, very cheap.

Subaru clothing at cost price or less, motorbike helmets (fullface ACU approved from £50), and a full range of motorbike clothing accessories, AND motorbikes at dramatic discounts.

Arai, Nolan,Shark helmets at giveaway prices.
Up to 75% of Belstaff & alpinestars clothing.
Eg Belstaff Pro-Toura jackets were £199 now £39.99!!!!
Triumph clothing HALF price.
Triumph Sprint RS (+£600 of accesories) & Triumph Sprint ST both £5995 otr.
They sell aprilia, KTM, Triumph, Peugot, Honda, Gilera, bikes as well as Subaru, Isuzu cars.

Brand new WRX MY02 Turbos £19995.

0% finance on all used cars.

********************************

A P1 breaking for spares, all parts available, including Prodrive suspension, engine (24,00 miles), gearbox, full interior trim etc

*********************************
Give them a call and see what they've got.

Tell them MTR told you. It might get you some more discount.

Cheers MTR

Seems to me that all those people who spent a fortune buying new cars, then spent some more on optional extras, are being ripped off. These parts have already been paid for by the original customer when they bought the car. IMO of course.

Big gulp of humble pie, sorry, I have had dealings with not so honest sales men (not subaru of course), which has left this as a bit of a sore point. p.s do you have any shiny bits for MY98's.

Rab,
No problem. They seem to be geniune guys, trying to make a living naturally, but treating people as fair as possible.

Apparently they have been getting a lot of calls, Suprise suprise.
You will have to persevere.

I cannot comment on what they have or haven't got, you will just have to ring them.

Good luck all.

Cheers MTR

There's still stuff left.
Don't miss out. Ignore comments about there being nothing left, phone up and check yourselves.

Rab,

NOBODY IS BEING RIPPED OFF.

All the items that have come off new cars have been BOUGHT FROM THE ORIGINAL CUSTOMER BY ROBINSONS.
When someone swaps his brand new STi headlights for Morrettes for example, they are given a discount off the full price in a part exchange type scenario, for the removed items.
The same applies for spoilers and wheels.

It would take a pretty foolish person to hand over a £1800 for some 18" wheels and not excpect something back for their unused std spec wheels. Unless they wish to keep them for themselves.

Robinsons then take the risk that they may not then sell on the part exchanged items , and so they take the financial risk, not the customer.

That strikes me as a pretty fair way of doing business, IMO of course, based on fact not assumption.

Cheers MTR
