I contacted this seller, and it is actually a Subaru dealership in Adelaide

They said they would do it for 2600 delivered (if we went through them privately as opposed to ebay.) Bit suss in that way though, as Ebay has buyer protection etc.

Sorry for the kinda off topic Ross.
Bugger!

Contact James aka "MY00GC8' on here as he works at City Subaru and cant get you one slightly cheaper.

I also heard a rumour the price in general has gone down a few hundred but nothing has been confirmed yet.
Checked with Subaru today....They have 10 short motors on back order with no ETA to WA.
