  1. Not strictly true mate-you have to use LOTS per month to be 'invited' to join the V Power club or after a while you could just ask,like I did!
  2. I've 'HEARD' from a dealer it'll 400bhp and the price will begin with a '4'!!
  3. I also find V Power gives me more miles to a tank than Tesco 99 - around 30 miles or so.
  4. Big thanks to Ian Armstrong @ Conders Subaru in Peterborough. Gave me a really good deal on my 330S and the service before,during and after the sale have been 1st class-nothing has been too much trouble. Would highly recommend them ps - many will know Ian from Stan Palmers in Carlisle, you will be glad to know he took the good customer service with him down to Conders!
  5. Is that a Blobeye? Not 100% but my Hawkeye has a larger plate than standard - if I put a standard plate on it would look the same as yours.
  6. Keep us updated fella. The worrying thing about the quote above is that the warranty company sent you to an independant garage - but after this they sent you to a Subaru garage for a 'proper' look? What's that all about?
  7. Another Hawkeye owner here - my temperature guage NEVER goes higher than a touch over 1/3rd of the way up regardless of external temperature or type of driving. What i will say though is mine 'uses' a little coolant between it's annual services for some reason. Not much and stays above the minimum level but it does drop.
  8. This country just gets fecking worse!!! That's just a total p!ss take - petitiion signed.
  9. Had my Green Panel Filter in my 56 STI without any problems for 2 yrs now. Due it's 2nd clean and oil anytime now and noth worried in any way. There's a lot of scaremongering going around with regard to the filters that need oiling. Oiling is fine, it's needed as part of the filtration process - just don't OVER oil it. It's easy to clean and just blot any excess oil up before fitting back into your car.
  10. I get the necessary stamp for free when i get it serviced at my local Subaru dealer - obviously different if you don't use a main dealer.
  11. Not tried them myself but heard good things about the Ferrodo DS2500's.
  12. He'll adjust whatever he can / you want. I had my Camber & Toe both adjusted and it really makes a difference to the feel of the car.
  13. I may be corrected on this but i thought they were one and the same. Hhmmmm,Bedfordshire!!?? Not sure to be honest. How far are you from Epping in Essex (just off M11) - got mine done yesterday by Zak at Mocom and am really pleased with it.
  14. If you're happy with the Bridgestone's, which you seem to be, then i'd stick with them and get 2 new ones. It'd be a shame to waste the 7mm you have left on the good ones! Spend the money saved on a GOOD 4-wheel alignment and some decent pads.
  15. Sorry to hear of this fella. It totally exasperates me. I too park in a different time zone to where i'm going,purely to stay away from the feckwits that insist on doing these things.9 times out of 10 some tw@t has parked next to me on my return. I really just don't get it at all
  16. I was thinking that as well, if she sat on my 'car' bonnet she'd get a rabbit punch to the kidney's. BUT, if she sat on my 'bonnet' that'd be acceptable Disclaimer: I in no way condone bashing nice ladies
  17. It's always a very emotive point this and i can guarantee will always get a reaction. The standard of driving on the roads today is shocking.This is getting worse and will get worse still due to the amount of people on the road increasing and the increasing amount of foreigners (bet that starts another debate ).
  18. Hi mate,what were you driving when it never went off? I've had it go off in one of my previous cars with a heated screen before but so far not on my Impreza - i read somewhere that using a tv remote should set it off.Not sure if this is b0ll0x though as never tried it.
  19. And breath Emoe Again,as most have said already,i agree with all you've said. The 2 other things that REALLY p!ss me off are people using mobiles while driving and people with foglights on,particularly on a nice sunny day gggrrrrrrrr Legal Eagle......... Regarding the speed limit point - were we not taught to drive so as not to 'hold up traffic'? I almost failed my test for doing 40mph in a National Speed Limit zone - and i would of done if there was any traffic behind me!
  20. Exactly the same here mate. I emailed Paul at Slipend on 3 seperate occasions about finding me an RB320 with me part exchanging mine.Didn't get any response - just pure ignorance,even if they're not interesterd they should have the decency to say so. Needless to say i won't be giving them my custom at any time in the future!
  21. Howdo, You will get LOTS of conflicting advice on this,it's basically what fit's you best.But........ I'd scrap the idea of having anything near 25psi, the sidewalls will be buggered fairly quickly at that rate,even if they are stiffer than most. I have my 225/40/18's wrapped in Yokohama Parada's and have mine currently at 35psi front and 33 rear.I've tried them at 32psi all round and even 36f 34r but have settled on the above as they just 'feel' better. Like i say,it's what's good for you.You can ask 20 different people and you may get 20 different combinations!
