Then the type r
Thinking about a blob spec c next.
 
must be driving impreza's for at least 6years. My 1st was a 2.0 sportwagon. Traded that in for my wrx after 6months. Sold that 6months ago and bought my bugeye

Duffman that's a gorgeous v ltd more pics please

Got my first scooby in 2002, then began importing jap stuff with a friend between us we've had about 20 almost all sti's

Thinking of buying a diesel Imprea or forrester next year as a daily. Can't see myself ever selling mine and I want to add to collection over time

Current car is 96 type r v ltd I saw in Daves place and had to have I could have gone new age or 2dr but my favourite of all the subarus we had was always a v2 type ra that plus mc rae was always a hero of mine.

I need a UK fifth gear though box is so low ratio. When I get a few quid I'm going to buy a silver wrx as a track yoke and do an R555 FEL fisher replica
 
i had a jap 95 wrx for a year and a halif then sold that cos i lost my job and drove my dc2r for 3 months then that got robbed so in a gf8 wrx for last 7 months
 
1st car Nova 1.0
Then 206 1.1 lx bright orange
Purple Nova sr
Corolla 20 valve twin cam
Purple 89 M3
Hyundai coupe
Toyota Celica 190
Currently Blobeye Wrx

The 1st 4 were all my boyracer days. Bodykits, neon lights, playstations the usual daft mods but loved those cars. Favourite was the purple wide arch nova. Will def be buying one soon just to rebuild for myself.

My first car started my Veedub infatuation:
1987 MK2 Golf GTI 8V :icon_grin:
1991 MK2 Golf GTI 16V

Went a little crazy;
1993 Lancia Thema Turbo (Magnificent machine.......when it was working and my first taste of Alcantara !) :cuckoo:

Back to the Veedubs;
1990 MK2 Golf G60 (Supercharged Lefthooker) :icon_biggrin:
2002 MK4 Golf GTI 1.8T .................................. :zzzz:

Got sense and went Japanese;
2000 Classic Turbo
2001 Bug WRX
2002 Bug STI (Stolen) :angry1:

Wife wouldn't let me get another Impreza after that.......Back to the Germans.....Slipped up and bought;
2006 Mk5 Golf GTI new.......lasted 6 months :icon_redface:

Eventually talked the wife around;
late 2006 til present my 2004 Blob STI (a keeper)
:subaru: :subaru: :subaru: :subaru: :subaru:
 
Have my impreza since january 2008
always wanted one after driving george tracy's old 2000 prodrive rally car
but never got around to it
pissed my money away on heavy german cars with bigger engines etc. and half the poke :angry1:
stibrian came in to the garage I work in with his and from talking to him and from seeing his beautiful sti
and logging on to this this site I joined up and within a few weeks got one
Now that I have owned one I always will
Going to keep my classic and next in line is a blob eye sti that I have lined up for next year

as for previous cars

only my decent ones mentioned
1991 bmw 525i 24v
1990 mini 1380 cc
2002 bmw 525i m pack sport with alpina styling and wheels etc.
1990 vw golf gti 8v big bumper with bbs
2001 vw golf gti mk4
1999 vw passat 1.8t
1995 bmw 525i
1995 mercedes s280
1980 mercedes 230 ce
1999 jaguar s type 4.0 v8
1993 mitsubishi pajero 2800 turbo diesel intercooler
1980 mini 1060 cc
2000 alfa rome 156 2.o
1999 alfa rome 166 2.o

also have had a lot more cars but the above are the ones i owned for more than 6 months worth mentioning
the subaru is the longest owned car i have ever had
not only due to the down turn but because it has always given me what i ask of it
decent poke to get around reliability and ive always loved the flat four sound
before i owned one i would always drop my window and kill the radio if one ever past me
just love the sound :shocked:
my biggest regret with cars is that i could have been driving subarus a long time ago
instead of wasting a lot of money on cars that where all image and fook all substance
but sure you live and learn :subaru:
 
I bought my first one n 2002 new. Traded an opel astra in against it.

In 2002 I bought my first Subaru Impreza 1.6 RX
Traded for the face lift model Blob RX in 2003.
Wrote off the RX in December of 2003 and bought a MY00 1.6 GL
Sold that and bought a 98 turbo wrx later in 2005.
Sold that when I went over seas with work in 2006 and will on leave I bought myself a 2003 STi impreza.
Sold that in 2007 to buy a MY00 version 6 STi typeRA.
Sold as my son was born later in that year and I bought a MY02 STi prodrive Bug. A black one. One of only 200 ever made.
Sold that and went away fro Subaru for a few months but wanted one again and bought a MY06 2.0 RX.
Missed the turbo and bought my current car. An MY02 prodrive Impreza JDM

Love it.

Nine so far since 2002.
