Default I have owned my Subaru for three years now
Cant believe it, longest I owned a car before was a aprox 6 months before I got bored with it.

Granted its been off the road for prob a year of those 3 but hey.

How long have you all owned yours?

I wanted an evo 6 when i started looking for a perfomance car but at the time they were tooooo expensive....come down in price now though.

Dont think you can beat the look of an evo 6.

What one do you want frayz?

I really like the Evo 5 or 6.

I always have another car so only want something cheap for a little fun at the weekends!

I'm on my 4th Scooby...... The previous WRX I had for just under 3yrs, which is a year longer than I usually keep any car, which shows how much I loved it....

I was going for the EVO 7 when I was a monied city slicker.

Bought the plate to go on it and then was made redundant a couple of months later

The square plate looked the bollox.



I had to wait 3 years to get the WRX, kept the Escort GTi till then and my plate on retention. Kept the WRX for 2 years.

Now I have the spec D which is what I wanted when I bought the WRX. Won't part with it for sometime as its a great all rounder, even if my plate does look weird on it .

After much planning and scheming, I got my first one in Feb 2004, beaten by Milamber by a day! We even make buying cars competitive

Had mine for 3 1/2 years, again, the longest I've ever owned a car but the good times far out weigh the bad

And who know's what the future holds,
