Good point !! 
OK - Disappointed that only 5 have put their names down to form a "Hatch" Stand
Good opportunity to make a Hatch statement - we are not the unclean abomination of the Subaru stable!!

just popped to the dealer and had both keys done.. £60 +vat each but they did a deal at £100+vat saved me doing it.
joke,
Maplings in nottm city didn't have any, so popped top the little guy selling ALL batteries.... so got two Engergizer 1632 batteries £3 each... got him to do two for £5 winner.
now don't have to be right next to the car to press the little back button on th door to get in
TBH.. should have changed them when I first picked the car...but back then thy seemed fine.
How do you turn the alarm off anyway if the batter in the fb goes... i had a right job last night at the golf club trying to turn it off... kept getting a Text message telling me the alarm was going off too!! Yep i know... I'm next to it

Must admit Rob you certainly push the boundaries with ideas, personally i like the painting. Now you need to paint the manufacturers name on the rubber for that extra bling.

Funnily enough I do actually have a tyre pen in the car
Prep & Painting for the callipers took me about 15hrs
removed and stripped down 320 grit first off to rough them up followed by a 1200 grit to smooth the finish followed by high temp Primer & 8 coats of vht gloss Enamel.

Having owned classics for the past 15 years, I have bit the bullet and bought a sti hatch. However I am a little dissapointed in the floaty back end through the corners.
What advice to stiffen up the back end a little. I do not want to make too many modifications. How much difference does the whiteline heavy duty arb for the rear make. I know it did make a good difference on the old classic.
Thanks
