I always fancied a Subaru and test drove one in 2003 in a garage in Surrey in the uk. My experience of test drives in Ireland was a spin around the block, this was different. Russ, the sales guy got to over a ton within 25 seconds of leaving the garage, after not crashing on a sharpish bend at very high speed, I knew the car was for me, I bought a demo blobeye wrx.
Then got an 2006 forester Xt, got another one and then had a hatch sti, had the wife in the forester and me in the sti for a while
Sold the sti in 2016 and then got a Hawkeye Jdm a year or so later
So 16 years or so
Could see myself broadening my horizons but pretty sure I?d be back again
