Must've been 98, it was pretty active by the time I joined. One of my early memories was John Stevenson put me in touch with the chap who set up Cult Car tours (name escapes me) as I was due to visit Chiang Mai, it was just before Cult Car tours started but I was met by the company's local business manager and he treated us to a holiday of a lifetime, all because of the Snet community

Car’s looking good though.
Didn’t you have a stickered up red classic with all the neons? I had a rather questionable classic back in the day too. Must admit I even had Lexus lights when I got it! I did swap them for a set of genuine sti lights though. Which reminds me, the bloke I did the deal with never paid me the £50 we agreed on extra.
Mind you, imagine swapping a set of genuine sti lights for some crappy Lexus ones and paying £50 on top! But nearly 20 years ago they were more valuable, crazy! You’re still a **** if you’re reading this!

I have two scoobs, my original classic ive had for 17 or so years, that was about 280bhp and got a Blob Eye that has anti lag and launch control not sure on BHP probably about 320 or so (total guess) the Mustang is about 480 bhp (supercharged)
The Mustang is quicker in a straight line and feels faster once moving, the classic is the fastest off the line, the mustang is **** on country roads the Blob somewhere in between the two but not as much fun to drive

I thought the Mustang would be average round the twisties. Back in the summer I had a friendly head to head with a 2017 Vanquish around the dual carriageways and roundabouts of Milton Keynes (presumably on its way to Newport Pagnell for service work).
I thought it would cane my classic, but it was only when we got to a long straight with no roundabouts that he shot into the distance. At almost sane speeds between and into and out of the roundabouts the Impreza more than held its own. I think a P1 WR in the real world would be uncatchable.
