Hi everyone my name is Jason. Came to the UK back in Oct 2011 from Las Vegas, NV. I am Married with one Kid. I have a 2006 WRX (Gun-metal).

I also wanted to know from you guys if you have a weekly Meet? If so is it anywhere close to Brandon? And what are the Times and days? Looking forward to meeting some of the memebers in person if there is a meet.

Thank you very much for allowing me to join the club. Have a great day. Bye-bye

Jason a.k.a TyroReca

P.S

I need to Learn the UK word plays you use for things, LOL. I have been reading a lot of posts and I was like what are they calling what?

Also Where do you guys get your Oil chages done at? I have always had Subaru do mine back in Las Vegas. They would change oil, filter with new washer, top off all the fluids, battery test, tire pressure check and a 120 point inspection for around $40 which would be around 26 pounds. But when I called the Subaru service place closes to Brandon they wanted like 185 pounds total.

Welcome to the forum mate and welcome to the UK, land of the rip off dealers. Over here you would struggle to get a genuine oil filter for £26!! I would give my back teeth to live in Vegas rather than here.

You car sounds nice, get some pics up

As for meets what part of the country is Brandon in

Welcome mate.

Oli alone is more then that in the UK.

The meets very and are dependant on the local club that is organising it.

Work out which one is closest to you by looking in the club section. They might be able to suggest a specialist. Oh and get some pics up lol.

Ya the car came with us from Vegas. We didnt have to pay one cent. Military payed.

The only place the military will not pay to ship a car to is Japan.
