Thumbs up 2 Impreza's in Hitchin today!

I was in the missus golf GT TDi and could see a lovely newage WR blue STi on the A505 from Luton, then it shot off ........... see it a few minutes later pulling into the McDonalds in Hitchin. Has a Scotland flag on the plate and rally style flaps. BF05*** i think
Then 1 minute later....
See another parked in the Millstream pub car park....

Unusual for Hitchin

Reminded me of my old car..... anyway roll on monday and I pick up my black STi Ver3 from API engines.... woo hoo

There actually seems to be loads of Imprezas around Hitchin. In the last couple of months I've seen...

mine (silver Type R - which no one else has ever spotted),
a couple of black ones (1 classic, 1 newage),
a silver newage,
a red classic,
and last weekend a white classic with black stickers was parked next to mine outside my flat. I was going to go down and have a look but it left before I had the chance. Sounded good too as it went off up the road!

Pretty good showing for a small-ish town

I cant remember seeing any imprezas in and around Hitchin so it struck me as unusual to see 2 in as many minutes, in fact come to think about it there is sometimes a newage wrx wagon with tints parked on the corner of perrywinkle? lane that looks nice.

Going to keep an eye out for ya rmtypeR, i've always liked the classic type r model!

Sarasquares, youve got quite a distinctive car and I do venture into St.Albans sometimes but I havent seen you about.

I do miss my old one tho!


But those days are gone now, and BMW coupe ownership has taken me to the dark side.

But on the bright side, as soon as I get a call from David at API on monday (hopefully!) that my weekend car is prepared im getting ready to pick up this baby aswell.......

API Engines

woo hoo... Full Kakimoto Decat system and panel filter, your gonna hear me coming........

To add to the list there's a nice blue blob-eye wagon on distinctive plates and my 04 blue blob-eye (the habitually dirty one with a bent front wing )

The red classic that lives on the Bancroft is a nice looking motor and I saw a nice clean looking classic at the BP garage the other night.

I'll be keeping my eyes a bit more open for the others on the list now tho

I wonder what kind of critical mass of Scoobies we need to achieve to blow our* sleepy little town up?

We should convoy up the Bancroft...


* purely by adoption in my case

I go through Hitchin every day on the way to and from work. See a couple on the B655 occasionally and followed a yellow sport Monday night after leaving the Shell garage (again!) which turned off towards Arlesey - is that you Sarasquares?

I also hear a really loud Scoob some mornings going up the A6 dual carriageway section while I'm eating my Weetabix at about 06:20.

Question

Casualhero what do you drive? I may have seen you driving about, the red classic you said about isnt the same one thats parked outside the front of the pheonix pub sometimes, I dont usually like red ones but that looks real nice!
