No, because that would mean more bumper damage lol..I keep scraping the thing as it is!
Heyyy..yeh It's me 
I remember you 
ahh, funds..being a single mum having a child and a house to keep..those are my priorities. If I didn't have those responsibilities, I'm sure I would be able to afford a Turbo..yet I wouldn't trust myself driving it haha There is a big difference to the 2lt td MG I had..the scoob is quite nippy to be fair
Looks good apart from the stickers
Recognise you from the old MG days Ceri ,didn't you have a trophy blue? I had a sunspot 160.Pretty sure we had the same forum names back then too
Im just wondering though why did you plumb for a non turbo subaru? Not much difference to an Mg surely
That's one thing I couldn't do without now..turbo!

Lol. Basically it's how many pistons you have in your caliper to compress the pad to the disc, so 2 Pots mean you have 2 piston in each front caliper.
So you probably have 1 pot rears...1 piston in each rear caliper.
You can upgrade easily to bigger calipers, pads and discs....for instance I have 4 Pot fronts and 2 Pot rears, a lot of people upgrade to the STI Brembos 4 Pots or go big for example AP 6 Pot Calipers
Some people upgrade as they need bigger brakes as they've up'd there power or others do it for aesthetics as it looks better

What he ^ said Ceri.
Little 2 pot fronts and 1 pot rears are no good on a heavy blob eye, IMO.
4 pot fronts and 2 pot rears would be much better.

Its a very pretty motor...although I personally think that its crying out for a load Hello Kitty accessories to coordinate with that lovely pink badge.
