1. Not a troll, just spotted the offer at Crossroads Garage...
It's deliberately a bit blury :lol1:

2. No, I would rather have the "dunx-( not currently )-mobile" and a mint 22B in the garage :cool:

3. AM looks very classy !

4. I had one bottle of cider, maybe I'm out of practice :wonder:

dunx

P.S. F1_fan has a plan, save up for two years and buy one for £30K :thumb:

STi_Si 15 February 2011 02:01 PM

V8 Vantage or Jag XK for me...

Tone Loc 15 February 2011 03:30 PM

Wow... anyone paying out £600 and upwards a month for any sort of Impreza, with or without the balloon, needs their head felt.

Littleted 15 February 2011 03:42 PM

depends what circumstances are, My work even an toyota IQ is 320 off what they call your benifits, and insignia is 600 LOL.

sharpy2010 15 February 2011 03:47 PM

Looks like the overwhelming message is don't do it. You can get GTR's, Ferrari's and those de-tuned Audi-Lambo's for that sort of cash.

The Scooby Cosworth hasn't sold for a reason... Don't be a sucker and pay that money, wait for a year and get it half price!

Littleted 15 February 2011 04:07 PM

These will drop like a lead ballon, if they had waited and made a saloon version then it might have just managed to sell in very limited numbers but anyone paying £50k for a Subaru needs their heads examined especially now the saloon is out.

If there are any dealers who have pre registered these and the cars are still sitting around they are in for a big shock.

dunx or anyone that matter who is seriously thinking of buying one, hold off as there is only one way the price is going to go.

PS this will never command a premium like the 22B, in fact will there ever be another Subaru that could?

Id probably say no.

Remember when the scooby first came out with that big hole in the bonnet it stood out massively from the rest, then it started to win all the championships, Colin drove em, good times.

All thats gone now

Boyakasha 15 February 2011 05:27 PM

It is sad, I do hope that they will turn it around.

In our family we have had every type of Subaru since they first came out bar the hatch and new saloon and my Hawk is the last Scoob left and probably the last Subaru I'll ever buy.

Spot on post. The Cosworth is a lame and expensive duck!

scooby seb 15 February 2011 07:02 PM

If your really tempted by one, wait a while and try and get an ex demo as i'm sure there will be a few if there not selling and after that time they will have ironed out any recall/warranty issue's and they should have dropped a bit in that time!!!

As for the GTR, yes it's an awsome car but people a saying your nuts for paying x amount for a subaru, just look into the running costs of a GTR, my friend waited a month for a test drive in one at our local nissan dealer and after taking it out and then being told the running costs by the salesman he promptly left and never thought about it again, because the thought of £800 for front disc's and pads £700 a tyre and very short service intervals he said was just rediculous and this came from a guy who run an M5 every day:lol1:

Its your money your choice, i'm sure we've all lost/wasted lots of money on car's in the oast and the future but hey it's our hobby so we just get on with it:thumb:

rickya 15 February 2011 08:32 PM

Id rather go to Litchfield & get a JDM Hatch with either a Type 20 stuck on or/and his 400bhp plus latest twin scroll turbos.

agreed with you 100%,but if one need to know the cost of running these cars ,one "should not" be thinking of buying one..........as any "supercar "will cost you an arm or a leg to run :).
Take mine for example 16.7 mpg !!!!....oil change £250+ @ the Stealers (nearly £100 just for 8.8 litres of Castrol Tws/edge 10/60W M motorsport oil if you shop around, dealer will charge you £14.95 per litre !!).

But hey we can't take our pennies with us down under can we !!:thumb:

What - with "discounts" you mean?


Not sure if the few that have sold have been discounted.

Really?

I've insured 3 of them.... one of which was for a lady in her eighties!!! (seriously)

I did a track day with a bloke with a GTR last year.... the day cost him £5k!!!

That was for the service, new brakes, and new tyres.

O well looks like you've done 60% then :thumb:

I guess I can out the buyer of the R205 onto you to as you guys will underwrite it as a similar car to the cosworth?
