Default Hello

Hi everyone, I am new here. Please be gentle!

Great to see all the info/discussions now available for Subaru fans, I will certainly be getting some advice from you all.

I am close to coming back to owning a WRX, as I have been playing away a bit, but hey its been fun.

I had my first Impreza Turbo in 1994, another 1999 UK Turbo and a 2002 WRX.

Been running a few others too in the last 12/24 months, such as:-

Evo FQ300
Ford RS Focus
Seat Leon Cupra R
ST2 Focus (current car), don't laugh!

I must say overall, power, looks, service periods and handling goes to Subaru.

I am looking forward to sourcing a WRX 5 door over the next few months.

Regards
Mat

The Evo FQ is indeed an extremely pretty car!

Just wish I could afford to buy and own one!

Hi Mat,

Are the EVO'S as good as they say and look ??

(Of course I'm asking on behalf of a friend, as A scooby owner I would never even look at one).

Regards,
Graeme.

A lot of people ask me about the Evo.

The cars are mental, a massive buzz, my FQ300 ran 330bhp, but day to day they are hard work because you drive like a plonker. Fuel worse than a Subaru (think about that) and 4500 miles services.....

Ermmm, I love em and hate em!

But there is nothing better than picking one up for the first time and giving the thing a thrash.

I must say that my ST2 Focus, whilst not that special sounds great (just like a UR Quattro) and it pops on overrun. It's cool in the High Street... makes you feel good, but it's ok day to day.
