Yes mate . .That's exectly what happened to me! I wasn't even really prepared to buy it, but after the test drive, simply felt I had to! Beware of the perils!

AS the dealer pointed out to me (and IMHO quite rightly so -

CTR = boys car

Subaru = mans car

Disclaimer : there is nothing wrong with a CTR, untill you take a Scoob for a test drive!

Am I right in guessing that the above statement is the result of prolonged and continuous drug taking . . . .

One is a go-kart, and the other is a SUBARU . . .. . .Ofcourse, there is a great difference between a standard uk spec Impreza, and an Impreza that has been Chav'd up to its eye *****!(Just thought it would be good to point that out)

Good talking to you lads!
