Subaru appoints new dealer in Sheffield


Europa UK has been appointed the Subaru franchise in Sheffield and is the tenth new appointment for the Japanese manufacturer so far this year.

Subaru said there’s also a further 10 appointments to come before the end of the year.

Lawrence Good, managing director, Subaru (UK), said: "There has never been a better time for new dealers to get on board. In less than one year, Subaru has introduced the Boxer diesel in the Legacy Sports Tourer and Outback models, together with the forthcoming Forester and Impreza.

“With the introduction of the new Impreza S range, this will reinforce our plans to increase market share in the UK.”

 

he sounds as deluded as gordon brown

 

If they can get 250bhp+ and over 400 lb/ft out of that diesel engine whilst still retaining over 35mpg, allowing 30-70 in 6 seconds or less, and keeping it in a tax bracket below £200 then they may get some sales, but I fear they won't get anywhere near. Back to the wilderness until the next boom methinks.

 

Montys have just lost it thats all.and it gone to Europa,big deal..
