Just read that Which magazine (December issue pg. 20) are looking for NEWAGE Impreza owners (bugeyes only) to feature in an up an' comin' article.

They are gonna do a feature (smallish) based on what the owners think of their cars - Pro's and con's.

They want name, address, and phone number, along with the model of car.

Email them at whichcar@which.net

or snail mail to Dept AS, Which Magazine,Membership Services Dept. P.O.box 44, Hertford X, SG14 1SH.

Come on, tell the world how much you love your car... or not!!!

Question

Hmmmm a newbie - could this be a wind-up??

Couldnt imagine that Which would be interested in Impreza owners?? hardly has the 'take-up' of a Hotpoint Washing Machine has it?? the market segment would appear too small??? surely??

I apologise if its serious, however!

Pete

Apologie accepted.

Have been "on" before but forgot me password!!!!

I s'pose the're more interested in reliability, roadholding, safety, customer satisfaction etc. etc. more than out an' out speed.

At the moment I'm waiting for my new "wrx wagon" due Feb. / March through Litchfield Imports.

Adios.

It is actually a genuine request of theirs, but I would presume only open to Which? members. I sent off my details when I saw it in this month's magazine, so I'll just wait to see if/when they get back to me.

Just remember that bulldogs are so ugly that they are beautiful.

LOL @ Pete I'm very well thank you, apart from the odd bout of forgetfulness, I put it down to old age, that and the fact that I'm a dozy tart

Dear Scoobynet users,

Thank you for your interest in the research being conducting by Which? magazine of the Subaru Imprenza.

'Readers rate their cars' is a regular feature in Which? magazine. We conduct qualitative depth interviews with 10 owners of each of seven recently released models about the driving experience, purchase decision, first impressions, advice etc. The research is then used to form an article on those cars. Typically we interview Which? members (as is the case with much of the research we conduct) but we have on occasion used sample from other sources.

Currently our fieldwork is about to begin and we have enough sample to carry out the research and have therefore finished recruiting for the Imprenza. Thank you to all of those who responded.

Regards Which? Market Research

Thanks for asking us to take part. Please feel free to drop in from time to time. I'm sure there are other areas in which we can help.

To be even more paranoid. Newbie requests details that are not required for the feature (address ?), why would the feature require an address. Wouldn't the initial contact be by email or phone ?

Plus check the profile complete with missing email !
