  1. I do like that air intake in the fog light cover, where did you get that and does it do anything apart from looking good? Did you just get the back lights tinted? If not how did you do it?

    Cheers

    I just sold some genuine black fog light covers on ebay! I just used the drivers side one with no light in it, removed the intake snorkel in the inner wing and ran a flexi pipe up into the airbox. Made it a tiny bit noisier, prob didnt make any bhp increase.

    After this was taken i added a pipercross red anodised funnel behind the cover to make it a bit neater.

  2. The only thing i suppose to remember is that the 22B was almost the same price when it was new and it still holds about 25k price to this day so this cosworth may do the same and i know that this car doesnt have the 22B has .

    The 22B had heritage though with the WRC, McRae etc. This thing has nowt, Subaru dont even compete anymore!

    In the classifieds in a few years for 22k.

  3. Looks like everybody had a great time and the weather looks great compared to the monsoon last year! Who was driving the F1 car and what time did it manage?

    The guy driving the F1 car was the owner, nobody famous. Was struggling all weekend with electrical problems. He was short shifting round the whole lap and to be honest was pretty poor compared to the Ferrari a few years back. Heard he did a 48 sec lap which surprised me as he looked slow.

    The ferrari in 2006 did a 41.5 sec lap and wasnt really trying!

    Dunc, it was De La Rosas from 2003.

  4. Got a couple of tickets for the Champions League Semi-Final last wednesday so popped over to Barca for 3 days. I've never experianced anything like the passion the Barca fans have for their team, I stood outside the ground when the team bus arrived and it was bedlam, thousands lining the street, fireworks, flares, riot cops, helicopters the lot!

    Pity Inter put up the shutters making the game a bit dull until the final 10 minutes when I thought I was going to go deaf with the din of 96,500 fans screaming! Heres a few pics of the night-

  5. Touche' :)

    Not offence taken, the Hatch is a very capable car i'm sure and everybody has their own tastes, its just unfortunate I dont like the new model as I have been Subaru through and through for 10 years.

    I'm off to work in Italy on friday so wont make the meet, have a good one and drive safely!

  6. Z4 M Roadster, 340 BHP, 0-60 - 4.8 sec, 231bhp/ton.

    New Impreza STI, 296 BHP, 0-60 - 5.1sec, 200bhp/ton.

    Slag me off all you want! The summers coming and I know where I'd rather be. After owning 5 Impreza's since 1999 I know exactly what they are like and its great being in something that is qaulity for a change. An interior that is on a completely different planet to any Impreza including the latest Hot hatch STI.

    One of the worlds best engines linked to a proper drivers chassis too.

    I dont like where Subaru have gone, deserted their legions of fans and brought out a fat turd of a car that needs remapped and new suspension to make it remotely interesting to drive, yes I have done quite a few miles in one.

    Also the reaction I have got in the BMW from friends/passers by and especially women has been amazing, I had 3 female friends appear at mine over the weekend wanting me to take them for a drive! unlike the Subaru where it was totally opposite apart from the 'nice car mister' from shellsuited wasters.

    I know the Z4 is a bit of a marmite car but I'll have fun over the summer then chop it in for a 911 or M3 CSL :)
