Hi all, after some time thinking about selling my WRX in favour of a house i finally came to the point where i knew it was the right thing to do, so, on friday it happened, i sold my WRX (very sad ), with a pocket full of money i needed another motor, fast.

My original idea was to buy an astra 1.7 TD then save the rest of the money for a deposit for a house but being honest with myself i just couldn't be happy driving a vauxhall, sorry vauxhall owners. So in my search of another i came across........ a subaru impreza, i heard they are very good cars and very reliable, it was an impreza 2.0 sport so i thought i'll take it for a spin, i was that imprezered (sorry) that i bought it.

Im sure i'll have a turbo again 1 day, sooner rather than later probably lol.

Oh yeah, 35 mpg hehe, nice.

Blitz.

A reasonable compromise, but just make sure you don't go at the front when we are out on a run And as mentioned above, Christine has no problems keeping up with us turbo guys.
I know I could never do this, either full on or nothing for me (my WRX is already toooooo sloooooowwwwww) - I'll be returning back to Golf TDi when my scooby days are over.
