sorry simple mindind individual, obviously you dont race around tracks, your obviously a boy racer of some kind. May i kindly remind you that not everyone who owns a 06 plate Blue Subaru WRX is nigel mansell, or david coultard. The driver is obviously inexperienced and had no correct driving lines through the corners. My fathers EVO 8 @ 370bhp was beaten around castle coomb by an A reg Ford Fiesta the other week. Trust me subaru's nor Evo's own the road, they mierly extend the size of your manhood. As the car i am selling is designed for thrill seekers, enthusiasts and all round car/motorsport fans.
but i do thankyou for taking the time to read my Ebay Ad and showing some interest in my car.



What a tit :lol:
