Sadly the programme is not long enough to go into detail and so was pretty disappointing and never mentioned the rear turrets etc.etc. and so on.

Basics.
Not "iconic Rally blue paint"
Not "original 17 inch alloys"
No mention of any ECU work.
The list goes on.

Whats funny about it is it shows that the only people who find big scoops, loud exhausts and stickers offensive is some actual subaru owners. The general public expect them to look that way and accept it.

Well, we searched high and low for it, More 4 etc, even looking for downlaods, and couldn't find it anywhere.

I’m guessing that’s tongue in cheek...

Only good thing about the programme in my opinion was that the owner with health problems got a running car but again in my opinion the work shown being done on the car and explained was very poor.

I am not into car stickers , but overall i think they did a very good job , i was surprised how much rust there was on a 1999 car , lucky owner of the car , they did mention about tuning it , and the turbo blades being worn due to a bad air filter was not something i have heard of before
