Back to the fold in a classic
 
Hi All

Not had an impreza for a while since my last one went pop. Anyway picked this up Sunday from a chap in Staford, im sure some of you will know the car as it sticks out a little and think he was a wmi lad. Car was also taken care of by API so you may have seen it there in the past
Really really pleased with it, it's a cracking motor, drives A1 and don't go too bad either. Looking forward to coming along to a few local meets and just generally enjoying the car.
Sorry not many pics due to weather but here's a couple

As long as you like it that's all that matters.

Ukautograss 09 January 2014 01:14 PM

Had two race cars in that colour mate lol couldn't live with it for a daily driver , isn't that the one that redone it had 350+ bhp ?

blackvenom 09 January 2014 01:33 PM

Welcome back, glad your liking it, maybe have it plastic dipped, if you wanted a change in the future, cheap and easy to do, I'm not the biggest fan of that green but it's how it drives that really matters

ditchmyster 09 January 2014 01:47 PM

Not my cup of tea by any stretch of the imagination, but if you like it then that's all that really matters.

Prepare for lots of abuse from the sticker / alien puke brigade. :lol1:

Cant say Ive ever heard of plastic dipping, but i love the colour as it is so don't think I'll changing it, and yeah i agree, it's the bigger picture than just the colour, it was more about the car which was the reason for buying it.

ha ha, i knew it would happen mate, everyone's tastes are different the end of the day, I'm happy with how it is and I'm not changing anything. Well maybe a v6 spoiler at a push but that's it. I think the last owner has done a nice job of it.

I think you'll find TT's avatar is a piss take, as-in, not his actual car...

EssexJamie 09 January 2014 09:54 PM

I love how many people think Tubbys avatar is actual car!,
Do you really think if someone owned a car like his avatar then he would actually slag a sticker car off!

Anyway not my kind of styling but the power sounds good!

JDM_333 09 January 2014 10:15 PM

Not really feeling the colour or stickers but if you like it then that's all that matters mate - maybe you could add some personal touches by putting some stickers of Michael Van Gerwen on it, like a darts mascot car.

trails 10 January 2014 07:20 AM

Desticker and standard lights would help it no end imo...welcome back :)

LOL, well spotted. I did actually fill it last week, you should have seen it before. Just waiting for a dry day to paint it. surprised you could notice it past the car. :lol1:

Thanks for all the comments anyway guys, good and bad. Wheels are a maybe change to be fair, look a bit pants and i do fancy going brembo eventually so will need bigger wheels anyway if i do. I'm just going to enjoy it as it is for now and see how it goes. Maybe see some of you at a show or a meet. I'm sure you'll no it's me if you do. haha

And Hopefully get some good advise on tuning/fixing over the coming months of ownership as im sure that's what the forum is all about the end of the day.

Cheers
Glen
