I got an sti sports wagon too,and i wouldn't swap it for a saloon,never never.absolutely love the sports wagon and i had the same frame of mind as most that they ain't that good,until i bought one and now would never change it.And the other thing is when you sitting in it and driving,it don't actually feel like your driving a sports wagon the size of it i mean,they just as responsive in handling and what not..

Judging by some of the cars (7-Series BMW/ S-Class Merc/couple of Jags)that are owned by people who live on the estate (council-flat estate in deepsed Hackney) I don't reckon there's much of a problem getting them....

If you're offering, yeah.

Sweet :thumb: :D

Wagons all the way - and 4k could get you a nice bugeye. £1k on top of that for mods gets you a decent performing car, and as mentioned above a lot less unwanted attention. With a bit of luck you may find one with the mods done already!

I need a swap .. I want to ideally swap with someone from here, good car for good car !

lordharding 24 November 2008 09:15 PM

Wagons are the best

especially the classics in Green with Gold wheels !!!

Because the lord says so !!!

early bugeye wagon would be a bargain if you can find one as they are very rare

pimmo2000 24 November 2008 09:23 PM

So any offers for a swap ??

Classic Sti would do .. :)

what would scooby do 24 November 2008 09:31 PM

Wagons are cool

Legacy estates are pure ice ;)

what would scooby do 24 November 2008 09:32 PM

p.s. you could probably swap with a 1996/1997 GTB Twin turbo with 280BHP :D

stistussy 24 November 2008 09:33 PM

Take a look around, nothing better than warping past porsches with a washing machine in the back :lol1:

mbd sti2 24 November 2008 09:51 PM

wagons rule and you dont get tw*ts every minute trying to race or causing unwanted damage when you leave it parked up, make em quick and look standard for a proppa sleeper:D

I don't know why but my local scoob mechanic hates working on legacy's,he says they are just a nightmare to work on.Having never owned a legacy myself i couldn't really comment on it,But im sticking to my sport wagon's anyhow.

Twin turbo so lots of pipes etc ? Otherwise it's 90% impreza (I have impreza seats and suspension fitted to mine)
