I've had the misfortune to drive one, kindly loaned by an independent Subaru workshop. Frankly even at £10 is overpriced.

I suppose you could view it as a pocket sized Impreza STI but without the performance or handling.

I feel like buying it, just to say that I had bought a car for £10, then allowing the poor guy to keep the car.

It reminds me of the day when I sold my Maxi 1750 for £15 to a scrappy

Didn't Colin McRae drive a Gp A version of one of these on the Safari Rally once?

IIRC, it lasted for a few days (after serveral suspension rebuilds) before it finally expired - thereby proving Subaru's ruggedness of even it's smallest car!

You could always but it,then apply to MTV's "Pimp my Ride" and see what they can do with it....you might laugh now,but it might just be a pocket rocket after they finished with it....lmao....Tez

brought comes from the verb to bring. I think you mean "bought" which comes from the verb to "buy"
