Default Finally got a Turbo

Hello all.

Ever since I have passed my driving test in 2008 at the age of 17 I have had Impreza's.

I started with the Impreza GL (classic shape) for 2 years, then 'upgraded' it to the Impreza GX (Blob). I've had that for a little over 2 years and yesterday I once again upgraded... to an Impreza Wagon Turbo 2000!

I only have the one photo atm, but I intend to take lots more, plus watch out for the projects page on the main site, because i'm expecting a few deliveries over the next few months.

Enjoy Look forward to the pics

Once you've had a turbo you'll never go back to N/A
As mentioned above take your time to get used to the power delivery.

Thanks guys. The first drive, when pulling off I was like... feels like a sport... for about 2 seconds then all of a sudden you get the donkey punch to the back of the head and your away.

Insurance was the same price as the Gx surprisingly £1666 with 1 accident against me and one in my favour.

Next Sunday it will be insured and ready to run.
