The Cosworth is completely different car it's had over £26k put into it, runs 30psi and over 400bhp - 6 paddle, coil overs, T38 hybrid and grey injectors make it very difficult to drive around as it's just mental power through the rear wheels hence the Subaru purchase.
The car is in it's original colour and according to the previous owner 1 of maybe 5 UK cars, as i'm new to this i don't know but he new exactly what he was talking about so have reason to doubt.

Both cars are lovely, but WOW what a Cosworth. Been years since I've seen one of the old "Whale" tail Sierra Cosworths and if that powers correct then it must need that wing!

Right that's enough about the cosworth back on to the Scoob, One thing that have noticed with it is the front windows are pretty slow. Is this a common fault?? and do all impreza window motors fit?

Its a dutch import that came in with the same batch as my first scoob did 
Sourced through Auto Tecnica in Mirfield near Huddersfield in April 2000, not a Prodrive car (but can be PPP'd like mine was
), registered in Manchester (hence the RNB reg plate as seen here http://i632.photobucket.com/albums/u...8/DSC00211.jpg ) and as far as I know, you couldnt get this colour in the UK though Possably could in NI.

Some updated pictures of the Subaru - i had planned on washing the car and giving it a poorboy session before the hard winter weather closes and in but it was about to rain after the wash so it'll have to be weekend now.
Heres how it stands at the minute
