There is a couple of cars around Agios nikolaos, to the east of the island. If you rent a car out and fancy going for a bit of site seeing and lunch, I recommend taking a drive up Lasithi plateau- an amazing road that will have you wishing you had your Impreza


Where about's are you staying on the island?

Got back yesterday from 2 weeks in Stalis, down the road from Malia. Not a single Impreza to be seen, but the Mythos was everywhere...

Mythos and chicken gyros is all you will ever need


I'm lucky enough to be able to get Mythos local to me

Speak to the people who run your apartment as the Greek people are really close to each other and chances are they will know someone who knows someone another thing to try and look to rent is a doom buggy out there- great fun

They are there, different country but I had a couple of weeks in cyprus a few years ago and rented an MR2, Mazda MX5 and a Jeep Wrangler for a couple of days each, went over the back roads in the Wrangler and got stopped by a barricade of a load of cars that would not let us past, so got stuck there for a couple of hours and forced to watch a stage of the cyprus rally. then followed a couple of the locals back that we'd got chatting to via the rally stage that were in a pajero and had some fun.

We're staying in Elounda, got a hire car today so have been about a bit.

Saw one of those Subaru Vivios(?) pictured above and saw a (cough) EVO today.

The roads are good but I wouldn't fancy rounding a corner enthusiastically to find a local coming the other way on my side of the road.

Ended up at Ag Nik this evening and had a chicken and pork Gyros (kebab)

Saw a Subaru Service sign outside a garage today but still no Scoobies.
Best cars today were Celica GT4, Mini Cooper S and that's about it.

Had a nice drive over some beautiful twisty mountain roads between Kritsa and Mirtos, very undulating, twisty and plenty of hairpins - if only I wasn't in a Hyundai....
