Sorry if this has been done to death but i have a few questions about buying my first impreza, found a lot of answers searching thru the site bit just have one or 2 more.

I am looking for a 99/00 model classic impreza, prices here in Ireland are mad, ranging from €9750 to €18000 so am now toying with the idea of traveling to the UK to pick one up and bring it home, trying to search on autotrader.co.uk but i need a postcode, can anyone tell me a London or Liverpool postcode.

I am looking for a mica blue subaru with gold speedline wheels, not heavily modified engine wise or body kit wise, looking for around a 50-60K millage and pref a car with FSSH and with belts changed

Also as we can only get 95RON petrol, can a remap for a impreza turbo be done to run safely on 95, dont fancy the expense of it al going wrong by running it lean.

Do the AA and RAC do vehicle checks in the UK, pre purchase checks?

Sorry for the long post

Cheers
Ian
