your brother has one of the best looking evo's in this area i might add!

evo all the way if you want just that little bit more! definately the way to go although there is no such car as an 8 gt??? dunno what you've seen but definately wasnt an 8 gt . 9 was the first to get the gt model. the ayc is not all its cracked up to be takes alot of the fun out of hard cornering tbh id go for an 8mr rs and take great pleasure in pissing allover m3's . all ud need is a decent interior and hopefully any rs u get these days would have already been fitted with alcons or similar ud be laughing! i know its a subaru forum and the usual darkside crap creeps up but its to good a car to dismiss as some sort of evil enemy! and the people on the mlr are a really good bunch of lads aswell many a cracking day/event laid on by these guys! it doesnt burble but it does have a lovely turbo soundtrack to admire as you blast along! just my opinion of course!

because u get a buzz from buying and adding to your car! its supposed to outweigh the dissapointment when u break/scratch/blow up something. when it stops outweighing the damage its time to go standard! oe is the new aftermarket! buy standard keep standard thats my motto!

haha someone wants to tell my boss theres a recession on! cant get 5 mins off work never mind paid off! got to get rid of the cash somewhere! yeah after the money bmw want to give me for the 330d i may just do that! robbing barstewards doesnt even come close! £10k for a 57 plate 330d full leather ,upgrades all round only 18000 miles! haha i could have fainted when they offered that ! private sale it is then! sell the uk300 aswell after new clutch is fitted not looking for much for it tho! any takers??? cheers jimmymc p.s im going to hold out for the spec c bugeye im in no rush!

yeah i have ,if i could find a white sti id be v.v. happy! have found a blob spec c sti but still needs floating so could be a long wait! subaru is the avenue il be going down keighley have a white spec c bug but it looks like a pig!

that is definately worth a look ! i really need to go get a look at one before pursueing the next scooby! and id rather have the bugeye than the blob tbh think its the one il go for always wanted one! lol

well audi would be the way forward seeing as im selling up the bmw! haha forgot to mention aswell i dont really want a modified car been down that road and in my opinion spoils the whole experience. i think its going to be a bug or blob sti tho ,think the decent audi would be hard to come by although haveing looked now i do really fancy one! . as for the focus in orange no way. my works vans are all bright orange as are the lorries and unimogs theres no way i could comfortably drive an orange car away from work!

oh thats a new one on me? al need to check that out!

m3 is a couple of doors short or id be right on it! although i may still be tempted !yeah hav a worry about going fwd but have done it before ! lol

im looking for a change i have a uk300 and a bmw 330d at the moment but want to get rid of both and buy one car . not spending any more than 12k what would you guys buy? im tempted to stay subaru but am looking at all the options evo, focus anything with 4-5drs really? anyone seen anything recently or hav any ideas at all? id really like to buy an s202 but not sure about the model report hasstle although a guy along the road from me has one????? a spec c might be nice aswell just not sure? im stuck between s202 - hasstle getting sva jdm sti - possibly! spec c - not found one yet evo 8 gsr - nah evo 6 rs - no leccy or aircon boo! evo 7 rs sprint - rare as rocking horse doodies! cant find one evo 5 rs - high milers nowadays focus st - hmmmmm strangely attactive? what do i go for?

pretty sure thats crd's old ten second car? could be a good buy if racetech hav ironed out all the problems?

mines the same i went to ian grieve subaru and was quoted £555 to supply and fit new clutch. i think thats a good price just havent had the time to book it in and get it done yet! thats for newage wrx

haha i did bump into him again at arnold clarks! was in to see about an mx 5 for the wife but went for the bmw instead! i wish i had gone for a 300r aswell tbh!

i have a uk300 without ppp. if i remember right the ppp was removed from mine because i was too young to get insurance for the ppp wrx at that time, that was 2003 or so when the car was just over a year old i think. it was 245ps then dropped too 218ps which it still is now! my car came from drive subaru, i bought it from the last brand specialist a certain mister mcrae! speaking of mr mcrae i havent seen many of the limited edition 300r's on the road recently! anyway i still have the certificate which states 245ps and was fitted in july 2001 so deffo the earlier ppp. also have the original bill of sale which is for £27000 for uk300 ppp plus all the extras uk300 mats, bootmat, strutbrace, short shift and so on . funny to think that thats well over sti money now! whoever purchased the car new also bought a spare wheel which i also got when i bought it????

off topic here but it is full of drama queens who dont ever do anything wrong on the road , always drive in the correct manner and use the same polish on their dashboard as they do on their halo's. im just back to sidc after a trip on the darkside but was a member for some time a few years ago when the mass exodus from s/net happened (never been the same since) i appreciate that there are arguabley better quality events on the go these days but what good are they if newbie's who have witnessed the high and mighty members of todays scottish scoobies posts are too put off to bother turning up?. Which leads then too same old people in their wee clique attending and spouting crap on here. again i appologise if some are offended but im sure some will know what im talking about

everyone is entitled to their own opinion and i dont have a problem with that . its the "f**k sake someones lost there life" comment that got me? as if i was being unbelievably insensitive and causing offence to some of the sidc drama queens?

at least someone can see what i mean!

i understand thats why scoobzie posted it up but im bemused as to why the passenger posted it up in the first place?

my comment was directed at the car not the guy involved! if you guys really are offended by my comments then its high time you grew up a bit and started living in the real world ! its no about respect for the dead, some guy who was passenger in a car driven by someone at dangerous speeds lost his leg and yeah unfortunately he lost his life, but i didnt post up anything regarding this guy other than a comment about his car. as i thought it was all that worth commenting on? what did you want me to do when i saw that post up saying how sorry i was about some guy ive never met and how sad it is and how sorry i feel for the guy posting the video on you tube? the guys lost his mate and the way he feels necessary to remember him is to post a video of his wrecked car and comment on how fast he had been driving at the time of the accident? yeah lets give him a pat on the back and a round of applause for getting out in one piece! as for your second point thats exactly what i was getting at ! its not a good joke and i wasnt trying to be funny but its the only response i have for such a stupid video!

driving irresponsibly on public roads brings very harsh consequences! you think im going to have sympathy for these guys? do you think they were sympathetic to there families when flying round public roads? no its there families and the poor people who have to clean up the mess that i feel sorry for!

a bit of t-cut would sort it out!

higgy where were those pics taken? the fast one yeah its an old pic taken about 4 years ago or so ive changed job since then now driving much smaller dirt gobblers! i do have a larger pic but i cant upload any pics or email them at all laptop stopped doin that a few months ago?? havent got a clue why?

i have a pic that i like i took it ages ago when i first owned my car probably not very good but theres something about it i like? cant post it up for some reason but its in this thread on second page. http://www.lancerregister.com/showthread.p...6498&page=2 ,anyway id like someone to fix the light on it if they could as id like to keep that pic ?

what micra-wrc said! thats kinda what i was trying to get at ! id like to post some pics ive done of my car but its a daunting prospect when theres so many critical pro's? puts me off posting tbh? but thats my problem i guess.

i didnt take the pics im just looking at the thread i kind of get the idea you think i have something to do with the pics i just thought the critisism was slightly unjust? but as you say he asked for thoughts and he got them! you have posted the pics and explained what you think is wrong with them! thankyou! too many on here just post a load of negative comments and no real explaination like you have with your take on the pics! much appreciated by the humble viewer!
