Of course !

More useful too :thumb:

Can't argue with that! :)

Wagons with saloon front and rear arches look even better! few on here if I recall.

^^^^^^^

do like a wide arched wagon!!

quite a lot of performance cars look decent as wagons, b5 rs4, rs2, e36/e46 m3 conversions (there's a nice e92 m3 touring on the bay at the mo) old escort combi rs turbos

Just found that, it's lush!

Wagons rool!

I love my wagon. Not loads of room for passengers in the back seats but it takes 2 seconds to fold the seats down for this massive space for transporting stuff.

Just a shame there wasn't a proper STI wagon done for all markets, unless I'm mistaken on that.

I'd second that.:thumb:
It would've saved me about £10k trying to build my own newage STi wagon.

Pics please 🙂

Edit. Thinking on it. I suppose the underrated hatchback is the logical step onwards from the wagon which of course does have an sti version.

Okay, some pics of my WRX wagon to 'STi+ wagon' build:

Crikey you've spend some dough there specking everything up to sti standards.

you can buy sti wagons, just not many around :thumb:

Amen to that :D

Fully forged 2.5 Blob wagon, once I have AP front brakes and whiteline ARB’s fitted, saloon front end conversion will be next:thumb:
(Got all the parts, need to get fitted!!!)

They made Bugeye Wagons although they are a bit of a half-way house as they still maintain the WRX track width IIRC.

I have wondered whether it would be easier to convert an STi saloon into a wagon, rather than swap everything across from an STi saloon to a wagon? Presumably the body only changes past the C pillar? Is the tailgate and saloon boot the same dimensions? Can't be a massive amount of work to cut the wagon tailgate section post C pillar and graft it onto a saloon.

Tres artistique. :thumb:

Thank you, I am an artist, but not that kind😉

Can confirm, though i do like the hatches quite a lot too! If i move on from the blob it'll likely be to a JDM hatch.

The nicest looking wagon I've seen

That's a beautiful colour for sure. I'm not really a fan of the saloon wings though but to each their own.

Thanks Don, I hadn’t seen this before, what an absolute beauty :luxhello:

you a budding artist too :thumb:

That's a Herculean effort right there. Amazing what people are capable of.

Would rather have another Forester STi

Thanks for the above comments on mine, got a few more little bit to do on the exterior but going to start on the engine side of things soon as it’s now at 130km and has started to loose a few ponies from under the bonnet.
