Smile uk turbo 2000 wagon! any good?

ok! had a MY98 wrx (276 bhp) until a month ago,i have a 6 month old daughter and the stupid insurance was up so it had to go bought a 206 gti,to small,to slow and just not me......so thinking of getting a MY98 uk turbo 2000 wagon as insurance is nearly half of the wrx!!!!!!!

I have a MY99 one and I love it. How can the insurance be twice that of the turbo 2000? it's only the difference between gp 17 and gp 20, isn't it? It will be a lot slower, but it's still quicker than most cars on a day to day drive. And it's the marque of choice if you're scooby in your heart.

A Wagon is THE DADDY!!!

I think that from MY99 they improved hugely, a MY00 would be even better!!

Wagons are far stealthier than saloons too. My Wagon is also quite quick with only 218Bhp, but as its a JDM it has fatter low down torque and lower gearing.....

I suppose that the import WRXs must be considered a bad risk for other reasons that we're not privy to.
