Uk are cheaper to insure and parts will be easier to come by. Imports have 61bhp more and cheaper to buy.

But isnt it more of a risk buyin an import and cant you just modify it to the same power output as an import?? How much cheaper you talkin about when comparing the too cars.

i suppose it works both ways, the money u'd save on buyin the car could go towards ya higher insurance and the money u'd save on insuring a uk version could go to buyin the car at a higher price, but like u said it would be easier buyin a uk version to access parts easier etc...

Buyin any imports a risk, u can easily modify a uk to 350bhp ish on standard internals etc.
uk car anywhere upto 14k
imports from abt 4k upwards.

it is far far superior to a 22b, its all been totally reworked including the internals of the engine, a pure rally car for the road, the whole idea of this car is not for looks but pure rally experience
