Thought there was a thread on this from ages ago but I can't search it.

 

Anyway, car's coming up for MOT in the next couple of weeks but it needs attention before it would pass it such as ABS light coming on and possible clutch/gearbox attention. I'm looking for a garage that won't rip me off and no problems! Anyone got any recommendations?

The bottom line is that you don't have to speed to enjoy driving an Impreza.

 

I could say the same for my mates Skoda Rapid he had back in the 80's. You could have great fun with it on twisy A and B roads without having to go at "mintal speeds like" and without spending a fortune.

 

Never had a 4WD car, never felt the need!

Maybe it's more fun beyond the speed limit, aye. Pushing it further and further an' that. I dare say you're right but if like me you've been used to driving relatively slow motors since you passed your test an Impreza won't need to be going flat out to be enjoyable.

 

I can appreciate your opinion on their looks. I'm a big fan of 90s looking cars in general but especially 90s Jap. I love the Evos too although I've never owned one.

 

As for ginger ugly...

 

 

 

Everyone exceeds the speed limit. Sometimes accidentally, sometimes on purpose and usually not by much. I'm in that boat. I'm too worried about getting points on my license to drive like a tit and I'm not naive enough to think that I'll get away with it. Especially not in a motor like an Impreza where cops will watch you like a hawk.

 

 

To be fair, you did get done for speeding in a Nissan Micra  ;D

I enjoyed the safety features in the Micra.

 

Am I recalling the no seat belt thing correctly?

Jury out on the ginge, matching curtains and carpet verification required.

You might be disappointed, mats tend not to be included in the sale these days.

Aye thanks for that. Tbf be fair that was almost 10 years ago. And I was going downhill with a tail wind. And I thought I saw a hun on the road.

Not quite. It had seatbelts. But thanks to the sand lodged within them they didn't really work.

Oh aye. I forgot he was in the car. Definitely racially motivated.
