MY06 - Driven...
By Iain Litchfield, I think this one maybe the first in the country ? :-
[
Felt very good from the passenger seat, doesn't seem as tail happy as previous MY05, some diff adjustments apparently.
Interior much the same.
Apologies for the pic quality.

Looks very nice in black
I'm not sure about the front number plate though. Somebody will some come up with an alternative to it before long..

It is the first in the country, Iain picked it up from the docks on Tuesday evening.
No rear wiper though, I see - penny pinching b*stards

The roof spoiler above the back window is a bit gay looking in my opinion.
Any shots of the interrior or engine bay???

As the car is a Spec C it doesn't have the rear wiper.
You can always have a beesting fitted - mine's a DAB aerial

I see it has a roof vent which is Spec C-ish, but where's the completely gay 'Keep Attacking the Ring' sticker ??? Must admit, if it was my car, that would be the first thing I'd chisel off !

I'm not a fan of the MY06 I'm afraid..it doesn't look like an Impreza anymore. I'm not sure what's worse the Alfa front or the lexus rear?

If you look at the lower half of the doorskin, there's a sticker in the shape of the Nurburgring, and the text 'Keep Attacking the Ring' ...
... thus making the driver look like an aggressive homosexual

Is it the first? Apparently a boat docked at Bristol this week with 06 Legacy's and Impreza's on board. At least that's what the stealer told me when trying to p/x my Spec B.
