geta turbo....................u wont regret it

it depends on what your using it for and what your budget is IMHO

The non turbos are a great car, but for obvious reasons a turbo will be a more pulse raising drive...

Sloooooooowwwwwwww.
Having experienced non turbo sccobs when i used to have mine in for a service - not in a million years would i buy a non turbo
Get a good TDi if you don't want to splash on the running costs of a Turbo.

Running cost don't bother me.

Just looking round found a blob eye non turbo in my budget.


And it £400 cheaper to insure over a classic turbo

Going to test a classic turbo on Friday if they will let me, may pop to another garage and test non turbo too

Brun

If running costs don't bother you then why on earth would you buy a non turbo????

Cos it newer and love blob eye impreza. How hard is it to turbo a non turbo car?

So you still get the scobby rumble without a turbo?

if you turbo a non turbo amd dont tell insurance company and ava smash makes your ploicy void mate wouldnt do that. just get a sport/gx id dont want the high insurance cost

Brun

Forget sticking a Turbo on an n/a car - it's possible but the cost to do it would be huge. I know it's snobby but a Scoob without a Turbo is quite simply an "also ran". Youths in their Clio 172's will be off down the road with little effort.

No what I was going to do if fot a non turbo is sort everything out and get another year ncb under me then turbo it lol
