Thumbs up Next Week I Will Be Mainly ....

..... on the Brecon Beacons - if you see a flashy red Honda Civic whizz by you, it's me - no point putting your foot down either ..... I've got a neck-snapping 350Nm's on tap and over 55 years of driving experience

Not only drag itself up them there hills - but can pull an Aircraft Carrier up there too!!

Torque = pulling power ...... you play with your BHP's and no Torque.

In any denomination - it's still a formidable Torque figure, capable of humbly most Scooby's - I know, I owned one for over 10 years!

Power on the cheap - and why the Scooby is dead in the water.

hah no it's not (less torque than most old wrx's) and anyway you only have 140bhp to go along with that small amount of torque, hardly seat of your pants motoring you old fart

Suggest something more solid than a tent then. Something between camping and hotelling....

Please post up details of where and when you'd like to show us Impreza owners how to drive and the supreme power of your cement mixer oops I meant Civic Diesel.

I dare say that there are quite a few Welsh members who'd welcome the chance to meet the legend that is pslewis.

Perhaps we can arrange for you to stray onto the Epynt military firing ranges during a live during exercise and see if your ultimate driving machine can outrun GMG bursts plus sustained shelling.

It might take a while to get down to God's country, so perhaps you had better leave sooner rather than later.
