Subaru Offer A Winter Bargain

Subaru BRZ
The best and the worst things in the world of cars are as follows:
The best thing in the world is a front-engine sports car with old-school rear wheel drive. The worst thing in the world is a front-engine sports car with old-school rear wheel drive. In the winter.

Well, with the same foresight that inspired Subaru (along with partners Toyota) to bring us the brilliant BRZ, they have now come up with another great wheeze to help us out on the treacherous roads of the cold season.

Subaru UK is offering customers buying a new BRZ sports car some early festive cheer with a free set of alloy wheels and cold weather tyres - worth a combined £1095 including fitting. Brilliant. Now that is what you call forward thinking.

The new Snoprox cold weather tyres from Toyo have been designed with special tread patterns to improve braking and provide more stable and predictable handling throughout the colder and wetter winter months. To accompany the 215/45 winter tyres, BRZ buyers can choose between bright Silver or Anthracite Grey 17-inch alloy wheels. Free, gratis and for nothing!

Customers qualify for the offer by purchasing a new BRZ up until the end of February 2014 and can at the same time have their standard tyre/wheel combination stored free of charge at the local dealer, ready to be re-fitted when the weather warms up.

Darren James, Subaru UK Director for After Sales explained: “The BRZ has won plaudits from across the industry as a great driver’s car. The offer of a free set of winter tyres will mean new owners can fully appreciate the BRZ’s blend of light weight, usable power and rear-wheel drive handling, even when the weather takes a turn for the worse.”

Subaru have always beavered quietly away producing great cars without too much fanfare. The BRZ is good value straight of the shelf and now it’s a bargain. Expect a longer waiting list.
