Does anyone know if Prodrive will offer a kit for the MY01 , if yes I will probably buy a a UK standard as in all honesty in my opinion there is little to choose performance wise on the road between a prodrive car and my current Sti.

Thumbs up

At the motorshow I spoke to a Subaru guy on the stand and he said he was sure there would was going to be a PPP for the MY01. He had no details ie price, performance gain etc though.

Cheers

First dealer demonstrators and first customer cars are suppose to be delivered early december. the guy at the motorshow told me if I ordered one at that point it would probably be late December but more probably January.

cheers

Have you left the car since or does your laptop do wireless internet? What about the car after 2 weeks of ownership, could you give us a more extensive report...

(btw, i let people believe i've got mobile cablespeed internet in my car.. i've got an Apple laptop and as long as i am in my street i'm wireless connected to the home network at ethernetspeed.. )

As far as I know there will be no PPP for the 01MY. This is due to the fact that a 280bhp car will be availabe early in 02, thus Prodrive will not bother with the PPP.

Sure they will do lights, back box, wheels etc, but no PPP.

This is not an official comment, just what I've heard form people at Subaru UK. We have had no official writen comment either way so far.

So no definitive answers here then, never mind Ho Hum ! Oh well,I will give Prodrive a ring tomorrow and see what they say. I'll let you know if they are doing or planning anything.

Heard a rumour at the weekend that the dealers asked Prodrive last week to include the WRC headlights in the options list. They are going to think about it.

I heard that the PPP will be available in the spring. Dont ask IM they know nothing. Cant even order the MY01 in the correct spec let alone know how Prodrive are doing.
