One of the boys in work just bought a W reg impreza turbo estate.
Fastest cars ive been in are 2 ltr BMW's couple of other N/A 2ltr's and couple of nippy 1.6's
Was expecting it to be fast when he took me for a drive, but it was faster than i expected to be fucking mad, how you can pick these 5 year old cars up for £5k is mad.
The guy that owns the car used to rally cars and navigate, awsome driver, on a single carriage way went from 0-110 mph in what seemed like seconds and a roundabout is about 100ft away infront of us and hes still doing 100mph, slammes the brakes on sideways in the corner, sticks to the roundabout like shit and back we go.
Go out of the car my legs were shaking
   
Get back into my 1.2 and it seems like a scooter lol....
Now i know why these cars are so expensive to insurer as the average driver who thinks hes colin mcrae will not be able to drive these cars on the limit.
That was my fun for this morning...

PMSL faster cars you've been in before are 2l bmw coupes no wonder you thought it was fast 
If it's a uk turboit'll be fast but no-where near as quick an import or an sti etc. But even the uk ones feel silly quick yes

Dean: Im sorry but oviously as stated you havnt been in many quick cars
I had a 02 plate subaru impreza WRX Estate.
i was very dissapointed, same speed as standard Xe corsa, 
and the handleing was absoultly SHIT must of been in the car less than 2mins and it was already sideways...
the ONLY think that impressed me was the way it pulled off (Traction)
I cant comment on any other subaru's as this is the only 1 i have drove but i didnt see what all the hypes about. i need to drive 1 like in the pic above im sure this will be 100 times better well i hope so

Thats what im saying the difference in speed between 1.8 mg's 2.0 bmw's...
How the hell can u say at the age of 19 u wasnt impressed with an impretza and more to the point how the fuck can u afford one.

why does age come into it ? i wasnt impressed becuase i thought it was crap !!!
i didnt think much to the handleing and i didnt think the speed was all that. well tell a lie, accelaration.. i did 148mph top speed in it. and im pritty sure no matter what road it wouldnt go any faster....
