Thanks Simon, I could do with an Impreza fix - it's been a while since I've driven one.

You know it makes sense Kevin.

Don't worry as the official SWS paparazzi you were always going to be asked.

It'll be great for me as well, I've never bought and paid for a car I've never even driven or seen in the flesh.

I know that feeling Ty, We'll both have our fixes soon

 

And you've been out of action a lot longer than I have, but that'll soon be at an end.

 

Very good news Ty, your a patient man!

 

Worth the wait it's a phenomenal car

 

Thanks Simon, though not quite the patience of Jobe, yet...

 

If it's as good as my first S202 then I'll be a very happy owner.

 

I received a batch of pics today from Tom @ Bravo Auto UK, I have posted them in the members gallery.

I had some great news today my registration documents and tax disc arrived this morning from the DVLA.

So now to book a train ticket to Leeds on Friday, and driving nirvana on the way back to Leominster to drop the car off with Ryan for it's full service, paintwork issues to be addressed plus other work to be carried out.

I can't wait, it seems like ages since I've driven an Impreza.

 

Brill news Tyron, the wait is ending for you I went up to Bradford way to get mine on the Choo Choo, the drive back was great - though nervous for some reason enjoy the day !!

 

Exciting times

 

Thanks, just booked my train ticket from Leominster (dropping my Mini off there) and then I will drive the Impreza back to Leominster, drop the Impreza off with Ryan and then drive home from there in the Mini.

Once it's in with Ryan it will have some TLC, I am not desperate to get the car back in order to park it up for the winter so it'll give me plenty of time to arrange the remap etc.

 

Great Ty I'm looking forward to seeing this one for sure

 

Thanks Simon, it's within reach now. I'm only sorry I can't jump on a train today but just a few more days left to go now.

 

Who's doing the map for you Tyron, you going back to Bob ?

 

You will learn the art of patience Ty at some point lol

 

I'm not really sure yet Simon if I'm honest, it all depends on timings as I've got nothing in place yet plus I'll want it mapped in Leominster as well.

 

I've heard of it, but quickly forgot about it and went back to impatience.

 

At least give it a minute to think about lol

 

What that long?

 

Not too long to go now.

I nearly forgot about the alarm / immobiliser system, I'm getting a Clifford G650 mk2 fitted before I pick the car up on Friday.

Should hopefully keep the car save from theft.

Sorry Ty but no alarm ever keeps car safe from theft ,many taken best alarm and tracker

 

I think of them more of a deterrent rather than an outright method of stopping the car from being taken.

You just have to make it as difficult as possible for the thieving scum.

 

Well not too long to go now, I'm catching a train from Leominster at 7.02am tomorrow morning.

Thankfully there's only one train change at Manchester before I arrive in Dewsbury to collect the car.

I've bought some octane booster for the journey home as given the length of time that the fuel has been in the tank I think it's prudent to give it a boost.

Still not sure on the exact route to take back but I might try to incorporate The Buttertubs Pass as it looks like a cracking road, and not one I'll probably be able to drive again anytime soon.

 

I hope you have an eventful day for all the right reasons

Enjoy

 

all the best ty have a good one

 

+1

Hope the journey goes well tomorrow mate

 

All the best for tomorrow Ty, say Hi to Tom for me...... and "don't bend it" as my dad used to say

 

Good luck dude

 

Enjoy it Ty, plenty of scenery shots
