Yes, at long last ive seen my first MY01 on the road! i thought it was a toyota starlett turbo thing to start with and if it was you driving it (sonic blue one near shepley ind est) im sorry i didnt wave, it took me some time to recognise what it was lol!
Trouble is...... i also saw 3 other imprezas!! i aint seen that many all week (just one silver one at burgess hill) ta for all who waved back (DBM one turning left and silver one in opposite direction)

Hi Folks...

Racking up the running-in miles over the weekend in my MY01 wagon DBM. Saw 2 P1's ...one driver flashed me like crazy...obviously a top man who recognises a good car when he sees one. The one I saw this morning didn't see me at all...just saw him craning his head as I went by, obviously wondereing who the nutter in the Corolla was flashing him!

Saw a silver MY99 in Eastbourne on Sunday parked up on the seafront..owners stuffing cream cakes....shame on you...the extra fat will definitely slow you down you know!

Cheers, Rich

Halogen lights = jellymould shopping car

HID lights = mean performance car.

They make all the difference. Everytime I look at my car I'm glad I shelled out for the better lights.

High Intensiy Discharge.

They work really well too. It's an option on the Japanese cars and is well worth it.

There is a company advertising HID light conversions in the classifieds part of EVO most months.

I thought the accepted definition of the HID acronym was "Her Indoors" !! ?
