I've been driving JDM cars for 20 years, there are no parts issues. Most parts are identical between UK and JDM.
I suspect my insurance is cheaper than most UK Impreza owners.
Its easy for you because you’ve been driving them for 20 years and know them inside out. Yes, ‘most’ parts, but the average joe doesn’t know which ones.
The insurance on my Spec C RA is £400, so probably cheaper than most uk owners too. Was still more hassle to get than 5 minutes online
lovley car mate , i have just got another one too (age 55) 55 plate wide track , these young lads think they invented running performance cars, i have been doing it most of my life and will do until they remove my driving licence from my old boney hands
Lovely example Ignore the numpty that stated its the worst spec engine 😂 I ran the same engine for 8 years at over 500bhp and it took everything I threw at it.
Thinking of getting another one last had one in 1998.im 50yrs now but watching top gear last week and the mcare special bought it all back.do you all still flash your lights when you see each other

I am in my 50s also and I am normally in too much in shock to flash my lights if I see another one when out in my classic... However I did flash my lights when I saw a black Catalunya classic last year when driving my Audi. Hope he didn't think his exhaust had fallen off or something...

Sales fell off a cliff with the Hatchback model and never recovered.
