Yes going to get some new wheels first, exhaust, and some sounds. Would like a dump valve but have heard there not always good for the engine? Maybe thinking about colour coding, and a bigger spoiler, but will see what happens

Got it for 2400 mate, it's got full leather, and full dealership history..there are a lot of them for sale just now, but it took me a while to find a resonable standard one.

2 lady owners and 2 male other halves who ragged the tits off it?

I can't think of any women who I know that have bought or considered a Subaru

Well quite possibly, but the fact it's only done 10k in the last 4 years, and has been looked after, is enough to satisfy me it's a decent example

My old girl has had 2 Impreza Turbos, both brought brand new, she absolutely loved them. Mid life crisis I put it down to, but saying that shes always liked her cars, currently has a 3.2 V6 TT and is thinking about a an Astra VXR

Yours had too much done to it for me to purchase mate, going from a 1.4 corsa to a 313bhp scooby would not have been clever

i can just about handle one on standard power..

Did you miss read the part about the full dealership history?? The woman who had it previsouly (54 yr old) had it for 9 years, and has just bought an Evo 10, so i'm guessing she's quite into her cars..

A car only goes as fast as your right foot lets it mate so the 1.2 corsa to the 313bhp bit doesnt count

Looks really boring but it'll give you plenty of time to get it lookin the way YOU want it to
