Yep, got mine yesterday. I was a bit surprised to receive it, having had the video and brochure previously, after the cars were delayed from their initial delivery dates. It did seem a little over the top just to tell me there were discounts available for the P Style goodies. Would be far nicer if they sent us all a free P Style Umbrella, or better still a P Style All-Weather Jacket.

 

I've had my car for 1 1/2 months but no Subaru package though. How long did you guys have to wait ?

Simon

 

Who's received the Parcel from Subaru then.

Not had chance to watch the Vid yet.

 

What parcel's this then pray tell?
Picked my new P1 up on thursday does this entitle to this pressie?

 

Hi Mellow

It's a thank you letter for buying the car.

You get
P1 brochure.
P1 Style Brochure ( with 10% and more off items ).
P1 Story Video.

What's happened to your Yellow 'Harry Kewell's Porche beating' STi VI ?

Regards

 

Received mine today

Gastro

 

Neil,
The yellow scoob ended up being sold to The Car People of Leeds, they have since sold it on for circa £20k I beleive, it was one of those "wished I hadn't bought it" things that gave me no end of problems that the supplying dealer didn't want to know about, confidence lost I got rid, had a break, tried a few other motors but had to return but this time slightly wiser (if not poorer!)
regards

 

.. had my P1 nearly 4 weeks and not reciebed anything yet

Greg

 

My interpretation of what they've done.

All the P1's are as good as sold and they're now lumbered with a ton of promotional material. What better to do than send it to everyone who bought a P1 and make it look like a thankyou gesture.

As for the reduction on the P-Style stuff, it's horrifically overpriced and they're stuck with that as well. Wait a while and they'll reduce the price even further.

Regards
MrData

 

Got my package on Thursday, I want to know where my free umbrella and other freebie stuff is, surely this is why we paid so much for these wonderful cars!!!

 

Had my P1 since last October.

No package arrived for me yet. Is it any good?

 

Got my P1 last August. Package about 2 months later. Video is embarrassing - Prodrive may assemble a good car, but the video is crap.

Car's done 7.5k now and just gets better all the time .

 

Got my pack in January last year, and haven't had a new one yet. Spent all those months being sad and replaying the scene where they lower the car out of the truck and you can hear the meaty exhaust as it pulls away. I need to get out more...
I think a free jacket sounds good to me....

 

still not gone mine yet.... but free P1 Jackets for all sounds good, how about a petition ?

Greg

Same here
I'll sign your petition Greg.
However, I wouldn't hold up much hope of getting a free P1 Jacket even though it would be a nice gesture....

Rob

 

Yeah.......I'll sign your petition - nothing ventured, nothing gained !
Who do we approach - Subaru UK or Prodrive ?
I'd be happy to talk to them.....

Gastro

 

Rob (and everyone else)

perhaps we should ask this, how many P1 owners have you seen wearing the P1 leather jacket.... exactly... so petition on its way then Subaru

Greg

 

Gastro

lets find out and get the ball rollin then, I mean if every P1 owner signed or wrote in what could they do ? Surely not turn us away

Greg

 

p1 media......(and everyone else)..
I'll give Subaru a phone and put it to them & tell them to expect a petition for a jacket for *p1 owners*.....I'll post back with what they say

Gastro

PS - if they offered a very significant discount on the jacket - say 50% - would people be interested ???

[This message has been edited by Gastro (edited 18 April 2001).]

 

50%........sign me up for one !

 

sign me up sounds like a great idea
chris.

 

In for a penny in for a pound!!!!!!!!

 

Sounds cool at 50% although FREE would be better.... do ya think anyone from Subaru reads this BBS ??

Or does a mass petition sound like more fun ? hasnt that guy with the curly hair from top gear got a P1 ??? wonder if he's got his FREE jacket yet ?

Greg

 

Got a few bits with the car. (Umbrella, T-Shirt for the boy, cap, etc) with the car.

Gifts from the dealer (Walldenway - Maidstone)

 

On a serious note I have been speaking to my dealer to arrange a free track day to p1 suggest U do the same..

 

Hi Mellow,

remember me? Thought you would :-D How have you been? You dissapeared towards the end of last year, I missed ya.

Anyway, you'll be pleased to know that the constant jibes have worked and I've finally seen the light! Yes, I've sold the Evo and my P1 arrives on Friday..

Good to see you're back again..

MS

I've only seen two people wearing P1 leather jackets, and they were the sales guy's at my dealer.... I bet they didn't pay full price for them either.

Rob

 

Haven't had the pack yet, probably don't know where Scotland is.

I'd be interested in anything half price!!

Steve

 

steve

well mate if they cant find scotland there'll never find me

Greg

 

Martin,
Hi matey, good to hear from you. Was out of the UK for a while and only recently returned and decided to go for a new P1 b4 they all go. Funny though, I took an Evo Extreme out for a test and just could'nt warm to it, a wicked car though, can't put a real reason behind it other that I prefered the scoob (as long as it wasn't bloody yellow eh ). What was the main reason for you parting with yours then ? You sound similar to me, get bored quickly, change the car and OK for a while ! You'll love the P1, colour, looks, drive etc...I've had mine a week and have clocked up 700 miles already. Are you going to Castle Coob in May ? should be a good day, see the national events board.
Spk soon.
regards
Chris
