my new work van ..wagon :)
 
i have been looking for a shop run around for a while , something big enough to throw wheels in and also good for pottering to and from work in comfort ,i didnt really want a van or anything to big and also wanted something with rear seats for when i go away . it also needed to accomodate the dog

after searching about and looking at estate cars , twin cab vans i stumbled upon this (no less than 5 mins from my house in a guys garage)

a my97 gravel express
30k mles from new
sti interior
full pink sti suspension with pink shocks and springs
extensive service history

it drives like new , everythiing is tight and it does shift which makes me think it has had some fettling in japan , i will have to do some investigation when i get time .

had it 2 days now well chuffed with it , i also chucked a set of new rims on for now untill my NEW ones arrive :norty:

hope you like

it needs a good clean inside and out due to it sitting around for a while but the paint is immaculate and so its the interior so a few hours elbow grease will get it up to scratch :thumb:

M444GY 19 April 2011 12:50 PM

cheers guys

my other car is going into hiding for a bit as it needs some tlc , it keeps getting damaged where i live so im goin to use it as a weekend toy and shows etc . it needs a valet and some dent pulling so i will mostly be driving the wagon .

i want to keep this pretty standard as i think it looks unique as it is , its been played around with because it would of looked like this from new lol

As I said on saturday Rich that is uber mint. You need to get a Slammed Wagon sticker on it when you lower it

M444GY 19 April 2011 05:20 PM

Its staying on the sti springs bud , it handles really nice on them so there is no point .
