Default Might change to a Hawkeye Wagon after Xmas.... Crazy?

I am no doubt a little bit crazy. But it's played on my mind for a while and the more I plan for the Blob, the more I think "Is it worth it?".

If I end up sticking with the Blob then no doubt I will continue to enjoy it. But I am very seriously considering getting a nice, lower mileage, slightly newer Hawkeye Wagon. A couple of things recently have just got me thinking and I do miss my old Hawkeye STI so. I loved the way the 2.5 drove.

Cue the horror stories

I'm just musing really, but I am going to give this serious thought. If I got one I would swap a few of my upgrades over to it and then sell on the Blob.

No

If a Bug STI Wagon came up I'd beat the seller's door down!

Don't get me wrong I know it won't be the same as my old STI but I do love the Hawkeye overall.

Yes but they're as rare as rocking horse poo with diamond studs.

Nah wouldn't bother. I was being silly and getting all rose tinted. If and when I do change again, I think I'd be daft to change to another WRX and spend a load more money. Even if I do like wagons.

I get like this sometimes
