Default WRX & looking for sportshift

Hi.
Just saying hello.
Have a 01 WRX which is all good fun, a very boring Volvo V50 D5 for the family and a defender 90 for no real reason!

As good as the impreza is, i'm starting to lean towards autos on health grounds so the search is on for a decent newage wagon with sportshift.

Let me know if you know of one!

You need to chat to RIIIDAA.

He knows a thing or two about the sportshift.

Yup.... Been chatting today - but sadly Riidaa's sportshift bugeye was sold earlier in the year... I reckon it'll turn up again sooner or later. I mean seriously, who'd want an impreza with an autobox!!

Can't see any Sportshift wrx up for grabs at the moment

Also consider Forester S turbo http://www.pistonheads.com/classifie...o-2-0i/2753029

Cheers for the suggestions. No big hurry as the current wrx is dong a cracking job of putting a smile on my face!

Forester sti is a nice model just too pricey for a rarely used second car.... Same goes for most of the impreza alternatives...

As I said to you before - bide your time - be prepared to travel, and they'll pop up (wagons)
