Default What have I done ???

I appear to have just bought a WRX Wagon following a "life's too short" moment and a rush of blood to my tiny, tiny brain

So, er hello, seems like I'm the newest oldest newbie today.

Looking forward to picking it up later this week and then 'improving' it.

Aww thanks all, I do have a cunning plan to make mine a stealth (Q ) car and look forward to finding the right places to go.

My previous ride was an Audi A2 TDi so not that much difference - 5 door silver hatch - except for about 200 bhp !

Cool

Late welcome from me too
I bought my 1st WRX Wagon 7yrs ago and never looked back ... just bought Scoob Wagon number 7! Must need my head examined but once you've had a scoob you'll always want one
Enjoy!

He is a little older but i think that'll be a whole new thread

He has had so many cars and i have never seen him like it before. He even removes the door seals just to wax underneath them

Good luck. People on here have been so helpful, i'm sure you'll have your rocket q car upto gether in no time
