Nope, 4wd FTW, and i don't think i could ever own an Astra Turbo again, unless i came with a Garrett Turbo setup, coz the standard turbo units are wa*k

It is often claimed that the load placed on the turbocharger from the pressurised air flowing the wrong way can cause premature wear or damage.

Just remember that for every highly successful modified car there is always one hater!

And wasted more money than it would have taken to buy and insure an ACTUAL turbo Impreza to start with. I'd personally spend the money on my child

get off the internet and enjoy europe's roads!

very probably, but your talking to a guy who tuned his 1.8 Astra Coupe, that was a complete waste of money, but worth every penny :-) (spent over well over £1200 tuning it for about 15bhp increase defo NOT value for money)

Cheers Crew

Not sure how to take that comment.


Life is too short for me to take it too seriously, the kids loved it and it put a smile on their faces and mine.

Job well done as far as i'm concerned.

Don't know what your on about i've had mine 5yrs now, and pretty sure i never travelled to west mids when i was looking.

Some Subaru owners are like the pigs in animal farm.

We are all equal but some of us are more equal than the rest

Get over yourselves

Scoobys are the biggest chavtastic car on the planet and the sooner some on here stop taking themselves and their chave chariots so seriously the better.

I own and drive mine for fun.
