In Leckwith Motor Company near Cardiff.. http://atsearch.autotrader.co.uk/www/cars_...200915332250101

I've seen this for sale near Cardiff and happened to notice the SIDC logo on the back windscreen.? http://atsearch.autotrader.co.uk/www/cars_...200915332250101 As it's not a Welsh registration thought I'd throw the question nationwide..

Hello Glenn...!

Snap..! Welcome back from another 'old' newbie..!

All is going very well thank Jacqui.. hope it is for you 2..!

Ah well.. I'm doing over twenty thousand miles a year driving these days mate.. she does less than 10k.. what with fuel, servicing and running costs it's cheaper for her to run about in it.. I get to play sometimes.. and don't worry.. she ain't like driving Miss Daisy in it either..!

Saw this thread and thought I'd say hi.. The Missus has just brought a Wagon.. a 54 plate WRX.. Our first wagon, but not our first Scooby..!

Very sad news.. Only met him the once, but he was always on here giving good help and advice, and I enjoyed reading of his trips to Ireland.. Rest in Peace Bob.

Thanks Denise.. good luck with the baby, just had a puppy a few weeks ago, a few sleepless nights, pee and poop accidents took me right back to when Josh was a born.. All my mates from the WRC trips, I still check on your pages weekly and keep up with the helmet chat, which makes me laugh, so i'll keep in contact thru there.. Good photo's Brin, cheers.. I'll ring you soon Badger, my old bonkers mate..! I'm doing TWICE the mileage now for the same fuel, same speeds on the motorway, just a "fraction" slower getting there.. it's got to make sense with the way fuel's going these days hasn't it..? And as sad as it sounds, with all the idiots around these days, it's kinda reassuring to be drivng an inconspicous car around without drawing attention to yourself.. Good luck all.. keep AWDriving..!

Don't worry mate.. you're diamond.. almost indestructable.. you'll be alright..! Anyway, all the kids fancy a trip away to one of the Rally's one year, so if you can tolerate a MPV in the convoy, then who knows..?

Hi all.. I know I haven't posted on here in ages, but life and love have been kinda busy..! This is a goodbye, but hopefully not forever, but while the cost of fuel, road tax and insurance keep climbing, and having moved to Cardiff from Bridgend, but still taking Josh back and fore to his school a few days a week, less than 300 miles a tank wasn't financially viable.. had an old Escort TD Estate for 10 months to handle the wear and tear but that became tedious if not practical with 3 kids and a new dog too..! So I've sold the Impreza.. got 11k for it, so I only lost £6500 in 2 years.. and replaced it with a Ford S Max TDCi Titanium which is a year old.. 2 litre so quite nippy really, and all the toys like cruise control, 7 seats etc etc.. eats the motorway miles with ease.. The girlfriend will be selling her Mini sometime next year, hopefully we'll get something like a SEAT LEON FR TDi which is sporty but good on fuel.. But.. one day.. when the kids are older and money's not as tight.. who knows..? Maybe the Impreza which may be out there won't be as ugly as what they've come up with now eh.? So, take care all who know me, I've met some very excellent people in my Impreza owning years.. (and some not so nice ones too..) My good mates from the trips to Germany and other meets as well I'll keep in touch, I promise..! Good luck to you all and here's to many years of untroubled Impreza ownership..! A couple of photo memories too..

It's not working for me either..

I'll have two.. and I'll have some of whatever " official" one comes out at a later date.. does it matter..?

RIP to the Master of Motorsport and to all those involved in the crash... a very sad day.

Only just seen this thread.. Bad news and good all in one post..! Thievin' pikey scumbags.. [:@] Well done to the Police for finding it.. [Y]
