So few Imprezas about these days
Since I picked up my lastest Impreza i'm always on the look out for others but hardly see any. I see some classics but virtually never see newage STI's
In fact I think I have seen half a dozen since April.
Today I was behind a hawkeye STI heading south on the Malpas road at around 5PM
and it was nice to see one out and about. Looked lovely as I followed it onto the M4.
I know they are not the cheapest cars to run but I'm left wondering how there is just so few.
Its nice to be in something a little bit more exclusive though and often heads turn so cant grumble.
I just remembered I have also seen a few hatches.
Has anyone else noticed how rare they are on our roads in South Wales?

There's quite a few around the Neath area
- have to agree with you on the hatch front though - only ever seen about 3 on the roads around here..

There are a few around the above valleys.
Think i have seen yours a few times around the Mountain Ash area etc, im usually in a Polo though. The scoob only comes out the odd weekday and weekend these days and doesnt tend to go far then
Bring on the next run, it needs the cobwebs blowing out of its pipes i think!
