Hi, firstly was the newage MY03 WRX ever shown at the British motorshow? If so has anyone got a pic of it (or them) on display???
It's a long shot but here seems a good place to ask.......if it was displayed i'm sure some of you guys would have taken pics??? Thanks Al.

EVOLUTION

do you own it or something, just seems a strange request

Hope this is what you were after.

*AL*

Cheers! Would love to see more of it!

The reason i ask is that there is a possiblity of that car being my car.

This is only hearsay i shall add...........it may be utter rubbish, if anyone had the VIN then that would be something.

My 03 blobeye WRX was registered 8th Nov 2002 and is a PPP.I believe it's a very early one???
It was originally registered/ owned by Subaru (UK) LTD at their HQ??

Address says;

Subaru (UK) LTD.

Great Bridge,West Bromich,West Midlands,B70 OES


Selling Dealer is Subaru (UK) LTD

Subaru Broadwell,Ryder Street,West Bromwich,West Midlands.

Dealer No; 81301

Just curious to know more that's all.If somebody has an earlier one then when was yours registered.Thanks Al.

P.S. At least it's the right colour!! lol

*AL*

Hmmm......It seems the 2002 motorshow was from 23 Oct-3rd November, i remember now that i went that year

As my car was registered on the 8th Nov it is possible it may have been there.I wonder if Subaru UK would help?

nearly broke a rib. LOL. very loud

Just been on the phone to Subaru UK LTD and after some lengthy digging around it has been confirmed that it is the very car at the 2002 motorshow.
Doesn't make it worth anymore i guess but a nice bit of interesting info for me.

I've got the gear **** if you want it back

*AL*

I want it back!..........lol just think of all the backsides who sat in it.

my 2003 blobeye was registered dec2002 and ive seen it featured in many magazines as a review car before the blobeye was released
ive got alot of the magazines it dont help the value but its something to talk about i guess
so its really comforting to know its been thrashed from cold from its early days by a bunch of journalists who want to see how well it goes

Daniel-S

i went that year as well mate

what day did you go?

i went on the sunday

*AL*

You're not wrong about thrashed from cold.........after appearing at the motor show it was registered by Subaru and was 'General Fleet' probably driven by press and anyone.
I'm at this moment looking into the PPP that is fitted as i've been told the car was used/fitted by Prodrive themselves.Subaru UK are confirming this then if correct, they will send me out a certificate..............we shall see!

On a negative note..............my car is currently at APi having a complete engine rebuild. Due to a knocking number 3 big end!

I wonder who owns the STi on display at the same NEC show??

onslow

wot sort of mileage had it done when you got it and how many has it done now????
mine did about 10k in the first year then about 1500 in the second according to the service records
but since the day the warrenty ran out ive heard all sorts of strange noises coming from the engine
so its only a matter of time im sure

onslow

heres a pic of my car in "action"

If i have to pay anymore out David, i'll have to send you my wife to pay in kind?

Spoke to Prodrive today and the guy i spoke to says my car was used as the development car for the MY03 (PPP).I didn't have the heart to tell him it's broken!
