Does anyone other than Van sell Scoobs at Tileys??
I'll have to drive by slower next time to have a look at this WR1 of which you type... are they as good as everyone whispers in dark corners?? Or have Subaru just done a good PR job??

Default WR1 Number 125........is mine!!!

The car at Tileys is mine......................I've just driven it Home!!

WOW!!

Much better than STi PPP..................the ride and steering are superb!!

It also has a lot more low down grunt................but I'm unfortunately limited to 4000RPM.............BOO!!

In the flesh it looks stunning, better than anyone would have expected!!

...................I don't even mind the WR1 badges!!

........OH, and for anyone who wants to know, the driving lights are made by PIAA, not Hella as expected!!

saw a WR1 at crossroads garage today inside and out - have to say I was quite surprised - the colour is great in real life and the alloys look a great improvement over the standard issue 17's. BUT and there is always a but, they have about 28 ordered (think I am no 28!) and the 1st 2 only arrived on Thursday UGH - guess may see mine in August/September......

also test drove a JDM Sti - Ummmmm 3K cheaper....loved it, no flat burble but pulls from way down to 7000 plus...nice red dials and wicked bridestones - on balance the WR1 looked nicer but thats probably down to the 18's more than anything - but will the WR1 perform like Mr JDM ?? I hope so,o'wise cld be disappointed....
