Default new pride and joy!!
picked up my new car today!! a 2006 blob sti in blue (lower tax bracket too, apparently i was told quite rare to find being its a 06 plate) 21000 miles 2 previous owners, absolutely lovely condition and completely origional (i did plan to keep it that way but already looking at remaps, exhaust etc lol).
had a lovely drive back from hampshire getting used to the 6 gears.
Will put some picks up tomorrow when its not so dark outside, looking forward to taking it to the meet on sunday.

Sam

Nice find!

Late blobs with that kind of mileage aren't very common these days....

I'd wrap it, I've only done mine to where the bend to go under the car is as it can get damaged easily

Change the exhaust this morning for a H&S catcack (scoobyworld afterburner) with big help from Dave (bigemp).

Very happy with the results, finally released that flat four rumble

A very big thank you to bigemp for letting me use his ramps, garage and giving me a hand (I want your garage lol) and to impreza27 who offered to give me a hand too.

Very much appreciated guys.
