Subaru On Last Chance

[david_taylor]

Hi all. New site looking good!

Well after my previous post on the cost of owner a Impreza, and having to fork out 160 notes for new front pads after only replacing them 6 months previously. My clutch started slipping yesterday!!

I now have a £300 bill to look forward to next week.

Its the final chance for the car, as thats around £700 I have had to fork out over the past 6 weeks or so!

If there are any more expensive mechanical needs this year I am punting it!!

I went through a similiar phase but had to spend nothing for the last 3 months so it's swings and roundabouts

Having said that my insurance is up next month

I'm moving house soon and I'm toying with the idea of getting rid of ma scoob (my brother wants to buy it) but I just can't bring myself to do it........it's just the running costs which are making me think about it.

I know what you mean, I have spent a heap on my scoob in the 22 months I have had it but it's the best car I have owned.

Have to admit that most of the money has been on mods but I reckon I have spent £5000 since I got it and another £650 last week - £500 for front Discs, £150 for pads and I'm only home 6 months of the year to drive it..... Grudge the pads as I had Red stuff ceramics and the only lasted about 6000 miles. Went for DS2500 this time.

But as I said to Julie (and she foolishly agreed) - lifes to short.

Gogs - your going to the wrong people for bits again, 2-piece discs and DS2500 pads for 540 pounds.

I've done it for 3 sets so far on the Newage STi's (2 sets Godsped, 1 set DBA) and results we VERY GOOD!
