I've just bought a Black 2006 WRX, well me and the missus have.

I'm out of the country and she is in UK driving it around

Blokey in shop ( Westaway, Northampton ), says it's the first one on the road, is he right?? We've had it 2 weeks now.

Maybe it's just because it's new, but the 2.5 feels soooooo much better and pulls everywhere

Let's hope she doesn't wreck it before I get home in the New Year

 

My 06 STi is in the dealer's waiting for me to pick it up next week. It's probably in the showroom having everybody jump inside, flick all the switches and fart in the seats.

 

We both had a test drive in the 05 STI, and tbh, it woz just a little too "full on" for us. We need to use it to commute ( or should I say, "She does", while I'm out ot the country working ), and the STI just wanted to GO all the time and it certainly didn't like crawling around under 3K revs.

So we both decided on the WRX, although, if we were to get a 2nd car, which maybe an option in the Spring, then we'll get the STI, either the 05 or 06, as a weekend car ( or mine more likely )

Why can't I post an attachment on here ????

Saw an 06 STi on the M1 heading north around the Chesterfield area last sunday. Miserable rep-type didn't even glance as I passed, let alone wave

Is it me, or has the MAD smilie turned into the Scoobynet logo with Xmas lights

 

Bought the same thing (we'll 2.0) from the same place in '03 for the same reasons you put below. Enjoy it

I saw one earlier!.... At least I thought I did, but on closer inspection it turned out to be a Daewoo!!!

Never realised they shared the same front end!!!

I saw a WR blue one about two or three weeks ago on the M1 near Nottingham. It looked quite good although the rear lights are hideous!

 

stan palmers in carlisle have had a o6 WRX for about 4 weeks now and the 06 Sti on the road for 2 weeks but still dont like them

 

There's quite a few now on the road.

The very first MY06 into the country was back in September..

It made it's debut at Trax on the SIDC club stand..

The owner is Heazille, it was purchased through Litchfields I believe.

 

Stan Palmers demo WRX in silver MY06 with the new rear spoiler is a regular around these parts ......and very nice it looks too

Midlife.....

 

Shaun wait till I get the real Macoy in the new year only an 8 week wait for it from placing an order. I might let you sit in it, are you at the sportsmans this month cos I aint seen you at the last couple

Cant make my mind up yet more than likely white cos there aint any round here that colour mind you the grey and black look nice as well.Im hoping to arrange to go to Litchfields before christmas for the good old test drive ninnybobs (martin) might be coming with me plus Im up to see Andy.f this weekend for a tweek to my map before I sell the car and somewhere i have to fit in christmas

 

Hi Gussy

happy Xmas !! It looks like you have your present sorted ..LOL

I have a real soft spot for white cars as I have had 3 of them !! The MKII Astra GTE looked nice in white....which is why I got one

If you go for the grey the darker "charcoal" looks pretty stealthy

Say hello to Andy for me !!

Cheers

Shaun

Saw a few in Powerstation in October and have seen a Black 06 Wagon at CVC in Cardiff. Very Nice too!
