Welcome to SES, did you buy it from someone on here by any chance?

:welcome: :welcome:

JonnySTi 03-04-2015 11:47 PM

Yep �� and thanks ��

JonnySTi 03-04-2015 11:49 PM

There was a :wink: and thumbs up in there lol

Got to love The Hearse.

Great car you've got yourself there. :ok:

I'm pleased it's stayed local-ish. I like to keep track of where FSTi's end up... I'm quite the :geek: on that front!

The Hearse (or any other black FSTi as it goes) was the missing link from a lineup of FSTi's at Prodrive. :(

There's a nice Forester community out there as a subset of the Subaru world. :)

Oh and as an aside, I have the original wheels from your car as my second set. I've always said if I sell mine I'll give first refusal to the owner of the Hearse, so that offer stands for you too. :ok:

JonnySTi 04-04-2015 08:33 AM

I didn't realise there were so many :) great lineup!
Is there a forester specific forum/group as I gave up googling in the end.
And thanks re: wheels :doubleup:

They're still reasonably rare.

Ten in a line-up was pretty cool... took some organising!

subaruforester.org in particular the Europe subforum is worth a look. You'll find load of people who know your car as NorthDownsScooby, a previous owner, was a very active member.

There's ukforester.com too, though it's a bit quiet generally.

Glad it's stayed down this way !!!

Welcome.

Glad they helped. Always good to know a history of a vehicle before you buy it I think . . . especially ones in the FASTEST colour !

Welcome to SES. you've got yourself a great scoob there. :ok:

JonnySTi 09-04-2015 11:53 PM

Cheers Lucky.
I've started making it "my own" this week, starting off with a major clean and... new wheels. I got bronze but they just made it look dirty (like brake dust lol) so I'm doing them gloss black over the weekend. I know not to everyone's taste but they're to my taste :D
Jon

Banstead Stig 10-04-2015 05:48 AM

The car used to have black wheels when NDS had it and looked quite mean.

Look forward to seeing how it looks. Have you painted the XXRs or gone for a set of something else?

Looks good with the bronze

JonnySTi 10-04-2015 11:28 PM

Agreed black = mean :)

I like the bronze on any other car but on this they make it look dirty. I straight swapped them so haven't cost me anything and I'll do them black myself.
Will post pics tomorrow eve all going well...

JonnySTi 10-04-2015 11:34 PM

Ps. Went for something else....

I manipulated the photos to get the wheels near black to see how it will look when I do them....
