Default Proud new owner!
Well I went, I saw, I bought!

Proud new owner of completely bog standard black 2004 Wrx! I have to say it feels amazing and was smiling all of the 100 mile journey home!
It's my first 4wd drive car and have to say the turn of speed is very impressive and the cornering ability is amazing !

Well I'm off to have a drive and then a to celebrate! Thanks for all the help and advise on here. Il be sure to come along to the next meet. Also does anyone know if the track evening in August has any spaces left?

Iain

Fantastic!. And in the fastest colour too

Brings back memories of when I drove my first WRX for the first time. I couldn't believe the difference between that and the Vectra SRI150 I was driving at the time.

Nice work

I expect there are still spaces for Brands on the 5th, but check the ClubMSV website for details

Thanks all. What's the number? I'll call them tomorrow. Can't wait to see how it goes on the track.

I'm really over the moon with it. I have to say I'm more excited than when I got my Elise. It really it insanely quick as a road car. The 4 wheel drive grip is hilarious ! However I've realised the saxo brigade seem to always seem riled by a scoobie!
