Well guys you may have to wait until I can borrow a digital camera but I picked up the Scooby Doo today!..

OMG

I am so pleased with it and after already clocking up 100+ miles already all I can say is buy 1

The car looks so much better in the flesh and I was grining like a Chesire Cat once I saw it sitting out back burbling away. It is just so well put together, no disrespect to Ford but there really is no comparison as far as UK cars go unless I could afford a new GT40 (well another story) .

Grip and handling is a bit hard to fully rate as I'm just running the car in and the tires and brakes need running until they are at their best but even now it corners so well with little roll and the Recaro seats keep you firmly in place.

I'm not used to driving a powerfull car every day but have driven some, i.e Supercar Day at Silverstone GP circuit and drove a Dodge Viper GTS-R, Lotus Esprit Turbo V8, 911 Carrera 4 and my Fav a 355 Ferrari, but spending just a few hours so far in the WRX is just mind blowing with regard to what it can achieve when fully run in as even upto only 4000rpm the boost is savage and almost instant! I pulled out of a junction gave it a blip to 4000 after a granny start and it exploaded and lurched forward big time

Worth every penny, and I'll get some pics up as soon as I get em

Here is a pic of my first car to wet your appeatite's tho
Oi don't laugh I loved it
