The young lad is 10 and has just rebelled, as from the post he has put up in my name (while I might add my back was turned) you can see he hates the car come to it so does the wife even having had a test drive in it and agreeing to let me buy it great isn't it you give them a family put a roof over there heads then they give you it in the neck.

My b/f doesn't like scoobies, but he said they are growing on him.

Good excuse for me to keep the car keys to myself.

My wife loves the STI - but only when she's driving it around at below 4,000 rpm.
Hates it when I drive !!
she has it all week whilst I commute in the Honda Civic to work, so come weekends I am keen to give it some teddy. I originaly bought the car to replace a bike so has to get some serious use to even partially fill the gap. (still got the bike - roll on summer!!)
Youngest daughter 13 loves it but eldest is 16 (going on 40) so sides with her Mum.
Oh well !
maybe 0-60 in 3 secs and on one wheel was more (dry) fun.

My 3 kids and the wife aren't too happy about moving from the Zafira Gsi to the WRX I have to say, not enough space / too low down etc etc etc..

So what ? - It's my mid life crisis and I'm gonna enjoy it as much as I can !

Talking

my wife said I wasn't allowed a scooby, wanted a mazda rx8 or nissan 350z, said the scooby was a tossers car! also said if i did buy one she would never go in it or drive it and said she was not interested...

so a few days later I ordered one and told my 10 year old daughter who loves scoobies especially well tuned up ones (her talk not mine). about a week later my wife asked me if I had ordered a scooby because my daughter had told mentioned in her excitement...ah that was a frosty reception that night, but it comes in 12 days time and I dont give a **** what she thinks!!!! put up with it for 3 years darling because it's coming home soon.
