Hi, well, if you don't want to buy new, from a Subaru dealer, then try typing 'breaking' into the search facility of this site and it will bring up the posts...

Hello Ian, I also have a japanese import SVX with VIN/Chassis Nr starting with CXW. U need not worry about the CXW coming back as invalid, Just call DVLA to...
Thanks Mike, I Googled for SVA and found an amazing site devoted to selling imported Mazda MX5's, which explained what's involved (I still don't actually know...
I have a Jap import with the same CXW, so no probs there. You should also look up the other SVX site www.subaru-svx.net where you'll find a wealth of info. The...
Hi Ian, For Japanese Imports: CXD is the top of the range 4-wheel-steer model only produced in 1991- 1992 - known as a version L. CXW is the more common...
Thanks Phil, So, as well as at least 3 formats of VIN number, there are different model versions for different territories too. I might have known. I have read...
Sorry, The other thing I was going to say was...I think the FWD versions were produced only for America, to get the cost down because the Yanks were not keen...
Hi Ian, Maybe I didn't explain too well. I think the 4WS is fantastic and we have had no problems with ours. I would definitely choose a CXD over any other...
OK thanks for that Phil, I'll get back to the CXD bloke tomorrow and see if it's still available, if I can find the right ad. BTW, does anyone fancy an LPG...
Phil, one more thing, There are also a couple of UK cars going not too steep, they will have the JF1xxxxxxxxxxxxxx VIN number, and might have 4WS. Would I need...
The 4WS model was ONLY sold in Japan and is extremely rare. UK models do not have 4WS. ... might ... for. ... you ... parts. ... known. ... make ... that ... ...
Got you, thanks a lot. On the other point, Subaru dealer KT Green in Leeds have been known to service imports, I've been told today. Ian ... From: b3lha...
A Subaru dealer services our imported SVX, but they refused to help somebody else I recommended them to. I think it's because we have another Subaru, which is...
Phil, I know of 2 CXD cars for sale: one is at Smart Commercials Leighton Buzzard, and the other North Wales 4x4 Colwyn Bay. I'm wondering if either is the one...
The one we looked at was 3 tone silver and was at AutoBMC in Rickmansworth. It's gone from there now, I don't know where it went. It was in beautiful condition...
Well there you go, how interesting. The AutoBMC car went to Gareth at Smart Commercials, who's now selling it after 3 or 4 months. I don't think I can attach a...
By the way, once these messages have been back and forth a few times the text gets chopped to bits (see far below). If the long link I sent has been broken up...
Just so you know, AutoBMC were asking 5000 for it. I offered 3000, but they said they wouldn't take less than 3600. I think they were probably hoping to sell...
Hi, I also test drove the car in August of last year (at AutoBMC), in the end I went for my UK spec car, but I seem to remember that it was in lovely condition...

Jason, Phil et al, I pestered the guy at AutoBMC again today, who said he was unaware of any problem with the 4WS. He drove it a lot and the boss used it as...
Phil, You drive a hard bargain, I don't know if I'd have the brass neck to suggest a price reduction of 40% straight off. I looked at a Lexus GS 300 Sport...
The AutoBMC guy didn't even know it had 4WS until I told him. I also told him it was broken. The system steers the rear tyres in the same direction as the...
Just try it. What's the worst that could happen? They say "no" and come back with a counter offer. You should be able to drive a hard bargain for an SVX....
