Hi everyone
Just put deposit down on a forester sti at Brian Downies
I had a bug eye before but have had a few cars since including a £400 Nissan Almere, passat turbo sport & civic type R but Iam finally back on track.
Don't pick her up for a few weeks while Brian preps her for sale. Can't wait!

Few pics at Brian's

chears fellas.
I needed a bit more room with folding seats for snowboards etc.this ticked all the boxes.
Next pruchase are some winter tyrers as its shedding the white stuff here in aberdeen as I type.
might get some alloys to go with the tyres. any ideas if 17's will still fit?
maybe with 225/45/17 winter tyres? its currenty got 225/40/18.
correct in saying they need to be 5x114.3
anyway cheers for the comments.

Thanks Pete, Brian Downie has a good rep, his cars are really nice. Even has a 22b in his stock!
This one was taken in in trade for a newer one with only a few thousand on the clock, just have to wait for him to prep it proparly for sale. has print out of 308bhp, not sure what its is standard out of the factory. expect a drop for age but i am unssure if its been mapped etc.

Very nice.
Some 17's will clear the brakes. The impreza from late 2005 has the same whels, but in 17's. They'll fit.

Yes I totaly agree with you......infact I walked away a couple of times bacause i found it difficult to strike up a conversation & get the information that i wanted about the car.
But once I had made it clear that I was intrested he opened up a bit and we chatted for some time about the car, and others which he had. I have only herd good things about his motors and services, even if it is like drawing teath.

Yeah your forrester is clean, had a quick nosey at it myself.

Asked him a few questions about it and he replied like i shouldnt be so stupid for asking.

Just something about him that puts me off
