S4 in France?

Hi all,
I am in the US at the moment but moving to France at the end of the year and it's a good chance to dump the Impreza RS2.5 I have here. I always wanted a WRX but not sold here when I moved to the US so I got a RS instead, it's now falling apart after ~3 years and I regret not buying a S4 then.
Any quick ideas on the going price for a S4 in France - 1999, 2000, 2001 years. Had trouble finding one on any web sites etc.
thanks
davidd

the best thing here in the mainland..is to buy a s/rs4 in germany..there they are a lot cheaper. of course you always have to pay some extra tax...but mostly you're still cheaper......so daily check

Thanks for the help.
Looks like they are just a bit more expensive than here in the US. You are looking at 35K US (~32KEUR)for a 2001 in good condition from a dealer.
Will be working in Sophia Antipolis so will live somewhere just west of Nice.
Took a drive around and up into the mountains there a few months ago, nice roads, interesting driving a Peugeot 407 diesel rental car though.

Well the roads around Nice are indeed tremendous with the combination of fast Autoroutes with long downhill sections and those B roads up to the Alpes Maritimes. Once did the route from Nice to Val d'Isere in a Ford Escort 1.3L in 1981 and remember boiling the brake fluid on the descent to Briancon. Truly breathtaking scenery though [img]images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
