New car
 
Well I've actually had it since January, but didn't get round to putting any pictures up. After contemplating getting rid of my Impreza, my hand was somewhat forced after this unfortunate incident :brickwall :

I decided it was time to get something different, and picked this up from a local sports car dealer:

In the 6 months I've owned it, I've had the ABS pump relay and started motor fail (both fixed under warranty).

Here is a more recent pic after some extensive modifications ;) :

Mods: K&N panel filter, clear indicators/repeaters, err... that's it. The thing I'm liking about it is the rarity - have only seen one other on the road since I've had it, and that was a red cab.

I don't have the same urge to mod it as I did with the Impreza, which is easier on the wallet! :cool:
Needs some new shocks and a PAS pump at some point though. :(
But then it is 12 years old after all!

Totally different drive to the Impreza. Feels more balanced, power delivery is a bit more sedate, but with the variocam it does fly above 4100 rpm. :D :D

Cheers,
Jamie

Looks nice. Could do with more pics though :)

Cheers lads. Yeah - what's with all the James'sss?! :D

I haven't taken many pics of it - the problem is I hardly ever wash it (hate that job :mad: ), but one day I'll give it a proper valet and take loads of photos (including some interior shots).

I do have this one taken from a slightly different angle:

The interior is identical to this, but without the yellow bits:
