Default back with a bug :)

Hi everyone, I'm finally back in an impreza, this time it's a bugeye wrx. Not quite as pretty as my old Hawkeye but it still ticks all the right boxes.
For those of you who don't know me, my name is Rey and I live in Watford. I'm sure I'll be seeing you around at the meets.

Hah after the Beemer I had a corrado vr6, BMW 330 clubsport and a BMW 320 diesel LOL! Keep up!
Quick update, I've just bought some coilovers and I'm on the hunt for some wide wheels... Not bad after 4 hours of ownership...

I always preferred the bug to the blob, you don't see many bugs around these days. Plus you can't beat the look of a prodrive bug on super wide wheels

Ahh yes you bought the BCs I had on my old Hawkeye.. how are they holding up? I've got a set of Pedders coilies for this, better than BC as the rears don't knock cos they've got rubber mounts. Downside is that the damping isn't adjustable but they're perfect for road use. I had XXRs on my Hawkeye back when you couldn't buy them in the UK, they're a lovely wheel but I fancy something a bit more exclusive, as they're quite common now

That's right mate remember your bronze xxr, one of the first I seen on a scoob. Coilovers are great mate still on the car now. Know what you mean about the rubber mounts though. Have you pics yet?
