I live in Italy and am eligible for 1 of the 200 "Solberg specials" (as they are called here). However, from what I can work out, the spec seems to be considerably inferior to the UK destined models which have the benefit of some Prodrive additional fettling. Can anyone advise if this is still a good buy at 42000 euros (= £30k in old money) Obviously I need a left hooker for the Italian market, and warranty, local servicing etc is also important. Too many models to choose from for a rookie scooby wannabe!

At 30k the Solberg is VERY poor value compared to the WR1!

Nice one, pick my car up on Saturday arrived at dealer today went to have a look this evening if it drives as good as it looks I will be delighted.

Hello Iceman,you will be well happy saturday so will everyone else when they get theirs.The car just feels so sorted and willing to go.I was getting pissed off with all the negative victor meldrew threads mostly from people who had never driven the car,when you drive it you will know youre alive,by the way I sitting at a red light on west derby rd lpool about 45 mins ago and a car bomb went off 100 yards in front of me if the lights would have been green who knows,trippy or what?.

WR1 Ant

Dito.... picked mine up today and I agree with above 100%

WR1

A car bomb? Are you sure it wasn't a VW Beetle backfiring? C'mon ellaborate on this newsworthy event. Funny how its not appeared as a newsflash on the BBC or are you smoking magic mushrooms whilst driving

gmj_wr1

Hi Bluto, no **** about that bomb its been on N.West news and front page Lpool echo Ive never seen anything like it before the ground shook followed by a f@cking big fire ball if the lights would have been green I would have been toast all that was left was the engine block it was heard up to 4 mile away miracle no one hurt.

The Grim factor. Please god nooooo.

Just got the nod that my WR1 is now at the dealer but I can't get the time off work to collect til a week thursday. Now that's a GRIM factor.

Glad all those who have one are enjoying them.

Ice Man - WR1

Feel like royalty driving my new WR1, I have even got my own personal photographer (thanks for the pics Brian). Seriously if you have a WR1 on order it is well worth the wait. I have'nt stopped grinning all day and will just have to go out for a drive tonight it will certainly beat watching the Eurovision song contest!!!!

Blobster

Ah, if only it were that simple.
Me and the missus work shifts around each other (recipe for perfect marriage?) but if a bout of flu (etc) were to lay me low, I'd still have to take the two kids with me. And they are most definitely NOT being in the WR1 when I collect it. It's mine and I want a selfish drive in it first before it gets introduced to the joys of grubby fingers, vomit, and so on.

Blobster
...chalking off the days, chomping at the bit, unable to contain my excitement, and so on, and on....

sti_ken

Have lots of fun with the WR1 and all be safe

bluto22b

Okay I stand corrected, apologies all round, the next pint is on me, okay?

A red Volvo 440 eh? Kev, Bev, Kev, Bev, Kev, nice car, thanks, we used to have one of those

Gooner

I finally collested mine last Thursday, not stopped grinning since.
Only done 123 miles so far, left it at home today when me and the kids went to Highbury to see Arsenal lift the trophy, will do a bit of driving tomorrow to try and get to 1000 miles asap.
AWESOME! That it the only way to describe it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

corradoboy

Glad you're enjoying you lovely new motor.

What that car needs is a nice plate like this or this

Clive the Brave

no no no....... GRIN............... miss type, opps.

Everyone who's got or getting a WR1 will be more than happy.
I am over the moon.
Total fun factor.

Just had my dealer on the phone asking for my insurance cover note.. Looks like the grin factor in about 2 weeks then!

WRX-Mark

So now a few people are picking up there cars, is there any logic to the numbering and have they all got the same prefix on the registration ?

P1_BEN

Don't think there is any logic... Had my deposit down reasonably early jan 19th and i have been allocated no 249....

prefix on mine is GF... Go Faster

LiamWR1

Prefix on mine FV 'Feckin Volatile' should get me insurance docs in the next 2 - 5 days & then its countdown
