Question


OK, time to draw on some of this wide range experience out there...
I currently have a MY97 UK spec Impreza Turbo.
It has served me well for the last 2 years and the only current problem is a juddering clutch that I need to get sorted.
Question is, Do I trade this in for a newer model (MY01 or 02?) or just spend some money on my current version to get some extra horses and extra looks ????
Opinions please..........

I have the same dilema with my 93wrx. Just don't know whether to keep my current one or splash out on a new, more reliable (I would hope) model

Given the levels of depreciation (mine - MY99 - has lost £7k in value in 2 years), I'm not going to fork out say, £10 /12k now for something that is not going to be much better (even if it's newer)

I thought about getting something else but there is not much that comes close to a scooby as a package. So I'm going to spend about £3k on mine and keep it......
