Spent my bonus on a STi RA today - can I come back?

Decided to blow my bonus on a change of car this afternoon.

After much thinking, my pounds per bhp rule meant an STi would fit the bill perfectly.

Took the plunge and bought my 4th Impreza since 1999.

White STi RA fitted with 17" OZ alloys.

After driving an 8 valve Golf GTi the Impreza absolutely blows my mind - God these cars are quick - real world quick

Sound is great - should annoy the neighbours

Very happy bunny tonight.

Thanks Guys.

I opted for the RA as I mostly commute on B road twisties, and living near the Wrekin/Shropshire borders makes some great late night or early Sunday morning drives............

Collecting car on Tuesday 2nd November.
