spotted a blue mica MY01 in central London and tailed the guy for a few miles circling him (sorry! X979...) on my bike.

It actually looks pretty good at night - the shineyness reflected the Piccadilly Circus lights really well and the car looked pretty cool. the headlights at night look better than day - in fact, looked OK and from a distance look the same shape as the <MY00 - wierd huh?

The indicator bits stay black and slope down from the edges.

quiet. that was my first impression as I was bugging this guy who probably thought i was going to nick it off him. Even when he floored it out of the Trafalgar square into the sharp left into Northumberland place it was quiet.

the car looked good at night. :-)

regards,
rapid descent

was the owner leaning out of the window, ringing a bell and shouting "unclean, unclean" ?

(sorry couldn't resist)

Cool

There is one in our village. Guy obviously works for dealer (or owns dealership)as over the last month he has had a MY00 DBM saloon, a P1, MY01 and a legacy on his drive.

Haven't managed to meet him yet but I probably wake him up each morning with my scoobysport exhaust

Coming out of Stratford on Avon the other day with my brother and my dad, I saw a disturbing sight. It was ahead of us and about to go right at a roundabout.
“What’s that?” sez me to my brother.
“That’s one of them Suzuki 2 seater pretend jeeps that thinks it’s a sports car” Sez bro.
“Oh” sez I “Look at the ride height, looks like its been kicked up the @rse doesn’t it”
Then the car goes round the roundabout and we see it in profile and, oh look there’s a bonnet scoop.
“Hey it’s a new shape Impreza – never seen one on the road before” sez me.
After we stop laughing, swerving and making suitable comments my dad says “Sounds like you’re pleased with your purchase then”

Sez it all really!

Thumbs up

I saw a new shape turbo wagon on the M25 yesterday, I thought it looked good and it is definitely growing on me.
Once the wrc rear wing is available for the saloon it should look cool.

Just my opinions
