Just placed my order for the WRX MY01 Special Edition.Delivery around June.Here's to having a big grin on my face for the summer!
Can anyone recommend a good steering wheel lock?
Cheers, Mark.

Thumbs up

Disklok is probably the best steering-wheel lock you will find. It completely envelops the wheel and then spins if you try to use it to force the car's steering lock. Many people on this BBS recommend them. I got mine about 9 months ago and they were about £80 at Halfords at the time.

Hi Chip,
The only info I have so far on the MY01 Special Edition is: Rally Blue, 18" Gold BBS alloys, different front & rear spoilers, PPP 240-250 bhp, maybe modified headlamps, special interior, bucket seats, price around £25,000. Should have more details on Monday.
cheers, Mark.

sounds like a properly sorted MY01. Is it a limited production run?

I bought Car & EVO today one of them suggested a price for the new EVO VII of 27000. I'm thinking that the EVO's probably better value for money?

[p.s. The disklok is good. Don't be tempted by the Halfords thing. It took two minutes to get off in recent tests and is an awkward fit that can damage leather wheels like ours (it damaged my girlies clio wheel). Good luck with the special ed. when you get it. Jason]

£50 with anyone that thinks the Limited Edition will have BBS alloys.

The limited edition spec has already been done to death in at least 2 threads, one of which ended last week.

The EVO VII can be bought grey for approx 27k but the official one will be between 30-31k.

Speaking to Lancasters about the forthcoming Special addition they seem to think that it will have new front and rear spoilers, twin headlamps, Alcantara Recaro's, 18 inch wheels. No mention of a PPP conversion in the £25K price. PPP will be £2K extra....

Starts to look a bit pricey
