Holy crap, its all ordered now! New car
Didnt think I had the ***** to go through with it, but clearly I have.
All ordered pending finance being agreed, which should not be a problem.
After telling them no no no no no to loads of extras like parking sensors, paint and interior guard, DVD/Sat Nav install etc.. We finally got down to the nitty gritty.
So...... An Obsidian Black Subaru Impreza WRX is on order. Being delivered from Edinburgh some time next week. Then its time to get to Peterborough to collect the car.
In the meantime, mine needs to pop to the body shop to be prepped for P/X
Blimey, im all scared and excited now hehe

Hehe cheers Lee, I hope so too mate.
The little incident did me a favour in the end, the settlement for it is paying for the whole car to be prepped for sale
I was hard pushed to get black as I had a black vectra before and I get really **** about keeping it clean lol.
Bushi will dive in and take a gander now mate.
The next few weeks will be SO slow!

Yeah its just nice to know I will be the first driver, no hidden suprises etc
Love driving hire cars when they are brand new, so figured it was about time I was responsible for every part of a car, rather than another s/h car.

Down the road from there in Forest Hill Local boy lol.
Yup the new one will end up in the park too to get some pics taken. Already have the collection day planned out.
Collect car, drive to Camberley in Surrey, meet a mate who is a god with cars (owner of A world for detailers...) Get the car properly cleaned and coated in Xymol Vintage, then off to the park to meet a photographer mate to get some snaps. I will take my own, but want some proper ones too
As for the bias, fair play mate Would love to meet up some point to get some pics together. A standard WRX and an RB320, make me realise how basic my car is lol

Cool, hopefully the car will be a little more recognisable than the plain silver one I have now
Look forward to seeing a few of you out and about
Maybe a few of us locals can get together up the Palace while the weather is nice

Beechdale Motors in Derby had 4 brand new WRX for 17k this week. I was tempted, but have spent too much on my own 03 WRX to get rid for another basic car. That is well cheap for a proper UK dealership car.
