Default 10,000 to spend

if you guys were to spend 10,000 on a wrx what would you be looking for and given that there are so many up for sale would you be really for anything in particular thanks

I'd agree. Dave's car is simply a superb example. With the PPP, AST's and geo setup etc... it'll handle beautifully.

Add on to this the way he's cherished it, then your getting a lot of car for the £12k..

The same as when I had £11.5k flashed under it although in fairness, that was 4 months ago so I may take £11.5k or so now but in truth I don't really want to sell : which is why I've turned good offers down Why else would I be collecting goodies to make it even better Don't tell Helen

I'll probably be there from 2pm or so on. Look me up on the WYIOC stand and I'll see if I can tempt you to justify the extra

No apology needed, I didn't go in the end. Phoned one of the guys there to see what it was like and he said some stalls were dismantling, people were drifting away and the weather was on the turn again. I wouldn't have got there 'til after 3 anyway.

I'll let you make me another offer after you've seen and ridden in her. I know I'd spend a bit more, but we're all different. I really neither need nor want to sell, so I'd only accept a top offer. Sorry to be a pain, but it's my baby and it would break my heart to let her go for any less than she's worth to me and IDGAF what she's worth to any potential buyer.

Pop along to a meet sometime and we'll chat.

10k would have bought you 4 of those POS's that that Robin B'stard was trying to offload. All interest I had in his Evo went out the window when he went a donuttin' (w'anka) round the field this morning.

Well done to Stu for subtly pointing out to him what utter pieces of crap he was selling . Spent all weekend treading in sheep ****, then went over to his stand and saw the same stuff with wheels on (3 spokes at that!)

So naff they were ultra-cool

Found this...


Apparently made by Ronal, for VW fitment.

I want some, but don't think they'll clear the Brembos
