Picked up a Type R :)
 
Woohoo! After drooling over it on here and eBay, I picked it up today :luvlove:
The guy really didn't want to see it go!
I'll get pics when it's clean cos I had a 415mile trip to get it home and now it's grimey.
Drives a little different to the UK wagon.....

Welcome to the real Subaru club.:D

These are a completely different drive, so take your time and get to know it or you'll be arse end into a hedge, best advice i would give is make sure you have good tyres and don't lift off the gas in the twisty bits apply the power progressively, unless you like spinning of course.:lol1:

Enjoy.:D

best car i owned was my type r, i had an evo 6 ralliart at the same time and it wasn't a patch on the type r.

It took me a while to adapt to my Type-R, as they purely want to be driven on the edge all the time.

I want a Type R next :)

Took my time to change my driving style from my 93 wrx to my 98 type R (and also new tyres and changing the alloys after a little 'incident' doh).

Agree with Kwik they do like being pushed on the B roads and the 'twisties'

I'm in the process of replacing/upgrading various suspension bits at the moment to make the car even better :)

Couple of worthwhile reads,imo, if you're unfamiliar about DCCD
