Well I sold my white wagon in feb due to got a great offer so it went

Went over to BMW land for a bit but was bored and missed my scoob

Started few weeks ago looking for another classic play toy wanted a saloon like my first impreza but all the ones I found were lemons . A mica blue one in Bedford was terrible !!
Anyway stumbled across my old wagon on eBay and thought would try buy it back as new owner had spent some time and money on the body and new the engine was good but distance was the killer and I lost out

Then last week mrs found out she is pregnant again , I got a Octavia estate for daily driving but thought a wagon might be a good choice again ,

So off on the hunt I found a nice facelift wagon with tax and mot , sane owner last 4 years with a good history and pretty standard
Has few marks on the body and needs a service but asking price was 1k !!!! First I was thinking its a sport at that money but yesterday I went down to Kent and took it !

Not washed it yet so will get some pictures later but here is one of my old wagon

That's a smart looking wagon mate. Get some pictures up of your new one as it sounds like a bargain! Which was the blue one you looked at in Bedford?
