I thought I heard that too, twice actually!

Then Dom the hooligan arrives with no mention of modifications...

So the point of the clip was a 400 bhp Evo versus a 400 bhp Subie! are pretty much on point with little difference, however we all know there are a vast in difference that wasn't mentioned, so pretty dull really.

It was pretty dull yes - we usually get a decent Tiff car ragging, which would highlight better the real world differences, but presume the owners of these rather nice examples declined...?

yes the owners didn’t really want them ragging the cars as one was very low miles and the other had just been sold I think

Great film, enjoyed that. Doubt that the little un dedicated at the end will be much of a petrolhead , more an electric head.

Here's the pics from the return trip in Wales. It was stunning, so Wales leapt ahead of Scotland

Highest road in Wales


Above the Elan valley
I had an interesting run with a driver under instruction in an unmarked Volo near Brecon; 3 up with mirrors everywhere, not shy of pushing on, until he hit town

they should come with a pair of earplugs , wind noise is shocking. Definitely for show only (or actual race days obviously). I was all dissapointed , hoped to listen to my exhaust the whole journey. Instead once i got above 40 all i wanted to do was wind my windows up. Suppose thats where wind deflectors are the better option. I've seen people with both but not keen on the look.

Best looking aftermarket alloy there is IMO.


Those window vents must be a nightmare. I know when my kids open the rears only a few inches down the back draft is unbearable.
