I`ve seen steve`s car in the flesh today and it`s well cool.
It looks aggressive from every angle
And on a dry road is going to blow away quite a few scoobs so keep your elbows in because with only 500 miles of running in it`s going to be coming at you very soon.
Steve love the colour and hope you enjoy.

Like I said quite a few scoobs. I`am no expert but wrx`s are around 220hp I believe.
You said one struggled to get away from you I presume it did then.

Such a shame the new scoob doesn't look nearly as good as the RS though (in my opinion of course ).

Looks fabulous darling

I think it's the first proper colour I have seen and it looks 100% Ford, but in a very good way

Ford are getting known for using any excuse to avoid warranty claims. With Subaru, many dealers will turn a blind eye as they get paid more for warranty work than private, and its more common. Only when the value exceeds a certain level and Subaru UK insist on an engineers report does it get dodgy. From what I've heard, Ford dealers are less liberal.

Lovely looking motor BTW
