Very nice....

P1's are classic motors, but getting a little old now....

You've done the right thing....

Black is a great colour for yer scoob.....

Saw this on Pistonheads a while ago

COLZO 13 July 2006 10:51 AM

Very nice mate.:thumb: Is that 18inch Turinis you`ve got?

MTayler 13 July 2006 10:53 AM

Very nice, can't say what you did was a bad move as already stated the P1's are getting on so why not upgrade to a newer model :) .
Any plans for it at all ?.

Mark.

SirFozzalot 13 July 2006 10:55 AM

PHILYB 13 July 2006 12:49 PM

Very very nice matey

scooby_matt 13 July 2006 02:44 PM

How would you compare the two?

WaltonWRX 13 July 2006 02:50 PM

you've done the right thing, seems like the P1 has a few problems from what i have seen on here. :thumb::thumb::thumb:

PHILYB 13 July 2006 03:03 PM

Compare, the Sti has a lot of extras so its hard to compare, because the P1 was about standard, but very impressed with the Sti so far, will report soon.

Gear Head 13 July 2006 04:01 PM

Very, very good swap there m8y! :thumb:

frayz 13 July 2006 04:21 PM

Stunning,

P1s are gorgeous but youve made a wise move IMO :D

SVVG 13 July 2006 05:00 PM

Rubbish. Classics rule (P1s, STIVs, RAs etc.). Newer cars are too heavy, too wallowy and too slow!

Few mods and the P1 will fly - personally would have spent a few grand on exhaust, remap, big brakes, lighter flywheel, lighter pulleys, some whiteline bits and guages. Will go like stink. Driver aids in Evos etc which are being added to new age cars make them feel too safe! (which is a bad thing... honest...).

Also, if (or "when" for the doom and gloom merchants....) engine blows up it'll cost between 2.5-4.5k for a rebuild depending on spec - which is still cheaper than shelling out for a new age.

Wouldn't mind a go in it though...:D

Stiver3 13 July 2006 06:57 PM

Good to have a change mate.... looks top.

Can't keep same car for ever.

Ive never driven or owned a new age, but im sure the extra refinements the years have added make it more useable day to day.

SwissTony 13 July 2006 08:17 PM

good swap, if i had the cash, that is what i would swap to :D

speye91 13 July 2006 08:19 PM

killa 13 July 2006 08:58 PM

Very nice how does it compare to your old car not the P1..

Jay_bee 13 July 2006 09:31 PM

Looks a stunner :cool:

I looked at getting out of my Type R for one, but didnt enjoy the driving experience... couldnt really feel what the tyres were doing and strangely, not the best sensation of speed :confused:

scooby1979 13 July 2006 09:34 PM

black is the new blue these days
love the wheels
