Default Bought another subaru, can finally afford the insurance!

Couldn't help myself, it's a bugeye wrx wagon with a lot of miles, been tracked many times and been to the ring a few times too, bought it from another local mechanic. Car drives spot on, engine sounds sweet as a nut we will see how long she lasts







Got k sport 8 pots, rebuilt box, sti injectors, sti top mount, bc racing coil overs, decat up-pipe, 3 inch full decat turbo back exhaust, 4 very good eagle f1's, a vf35 on it, and quite a lot of powerflex bushes. And a tow bar to add to its wagon-ness (i like to think it needs that weight cos it has so much power ) it's been mapped, but I'll be getting it mapped again soon as I can.

Needless to say I'm really enjoying subaru ownership

150,000m, can't find an invoice for an engine replacement or rebuild either and it comes with a lot of service history. Engine sounds healthy though, I don't do many miles probs 4-5k a year so hopefully it'll keep going. I'll see how long she lasts I'm planning on keeping the car a while.
