Default Getting My 1st Subaru on saturday.

Hi this saturday i'll be picking up my 1st impreza. Its a blobeye 06 plate sti type uk.
I've had all types of cars in the last 10years and im hoping this is the one for me.
I started with a gtir, then i moved to a nissan skyline gtr 33 which was later found to be a stolen import, then i got an evo 4, didnt like that. So i bought an escort cosworth, it was lovely to look at but, again wasnt for me., So i bought an evo 6, this was the best all rounder of the list and my house was even broken into to steal the thing. So after that scare i sold it and had a break from cars. Last year i bought a 440bhp pulsar again, and even though it was scary fast it just felt too old (1990 car).
So im hoping this will be the perfect car newish, good looks and performance.
Is there any meets at the ace cafe? i'm in watford area?

If you've found a good example mate, I think you'll be pretty pleased!

FB Tuning - Richard 07595 493581 - he did my first service and little tune up, awesome job and good price. I'm only in northwood, he's near high wycombe so not too far!

Get incontact with Rich @ FB Tuning for servicing and mapping, he is highly recommended on this forum, he will be able to let you know if there is anything wrong with the car my car was with him last week and will be going back to him again very soon for more mapping and advice.
