personaly if you want a scoob and you allready have a good one id stick with it. theres lots of dodgy ones out there. for example ive spent a lot on geting mine runing right (coilpacks, maf, plugs, idle sensor & so on) and you may have to do it to the next one if its an oldie your after

just like women. sometimes you fancy a change but grass isnt allways greener on the other side

You don't get loads of unwelcome attention from chavs on the road, with a wagon.

Wagons are the only Scooby that delivers without making you look like a right chav ..... they have a quiet confidence about them.

Saloons, especially with BIG spoilers say, ""Hi I'm Tarquin and I have a very small *****""

Wagons handle better and are quicker overall

Why DO wagons handle better, Pete? Does the extra weight at the back attenuate the natural understeer?

I would prefer to have the salon, just as i dont like the fact that the wagon is an estate and looks like a family car to me. i want a fast car to look fast not like im off on a seaside trip with the kids!! But as said depends on your needs. If i needed a bigger car i wouldnt have a wagon just because its got the wrx performance, as i wouldnt be interested in speed, just practicality, so not looking cool wouldnt be an issue!
