Just got home....phew...knackered!! driven all over the country this weekend...stayed with Dr Evil and his good lady (Camilla ;-))....met Matt, Mark and a few others...drank loads and then called in on Uncle Josh whilst heading north ;-)
650 miles now on the clock....so 1st service looking good for later in the week....and then it really will be play-time!!!
The stickers were done by the Subaru WRC sticker design/manufacturers...they have a company called "Spanky" of all names....hence the hand imprint/logo on the car.
A big thanks to all at Subaru UK, Cross Roads (John mathers), Spanky, and Prodrive for sorting the motor so quickly!!!
It really is an awesome beast!!! In my opinion....the best yet!!

Mossman,
Not many really, as we didn't meet up until around 5pm, and I was shooting at around 1/8th @ 2.8 at 800 asa to get the ambient light. Got the pix OK, but the quality wasn't worth shooting any more.
Anyway, for what it's worth.

Josh - Nice pictures and a very nice car, it is surprising how the scoop looks smaller in the pictures than it does in the flesh.
Tom - Cracking car thanks for the short lift in it (sorry about the pine needles on the carpet). Top night out as well!

Tony,
Unfortunately, I don't think she was that surprised, although my Son was . However, she seems fairly impressed with the car. It has a much smother ride, and is much quieter.
Fat Bot,
That MR Traitor to you

Josh L - LMAO
Rum - glad you had a good weekend, I managed to drag myself into work by 1pm today, still not 100%!
The car is awesome mate, I just can't believe the pick up with the PPP.. much better than the STi7 PPP, and I think a few P1 owners will be pleasantly surprised!
The STi8+PPP is definitely a bit of an animal! (thanks for letting me drive it ).
Hope to catch up again soon, Alex

Josh L - I reckon they've got the old subaru feel back, certainly got kicked back in the seat in Rum's motor - can't wait to give it a go once the 1K service is done...
Rum - I can't believe I'm still feeling rough after Saturday night You're right, total lightweight!
