Default How many scoobynet members have ordered a WR1?

Just a poll to find out how many of the 500 WR1's are going to scoobynet members.

Time to make your move and get your name down.
sounds and looks like the cars are becoming very much in demand.

I get a boner just thinking about getting my hands on her.
Don't let the boss women know.

Personally I'm sticking with the WR1 as mainly I want a UK car. I reckon the WR1 is well priced for the spec compared to the STI PPP and (shock horror!) I love the colour

I could have afforded to buy the Litchfields Type 25 but didn't for a few reasons ...

Although It is by far the most extreme and powerful impreza ever made it is an import with an engine conversion - namely American Lump with Turbo fitted. I believe you only get a 1 year warranty, and thirdly it isn't an 'official' Subaru car - so the help they will give you is 0!

Amazing motor though - spent a good 30 mins talking with Ian at the Autosport show. for me though the WR1 is the most complete all round package - hence me ordering one!

I agree............the 'WR1' may not be everyone's 'Best' Impreza, but it is the best New, Subaru UK approved version that you can buy.....................and peace of mind helps when you're parting with £30k..........

This may not be eveyone's opinion............but it's MY money that I'm spending..........not eveyone else's!!!

No not just that but it was one of the reasons to justify spending £30000 on a WR1 rather than £27000 on an sti ppp.
