Decided to move on!
6 Months ago I was so so prowd, driving home in my MY00 having just purchased it. I still love the car, but all you old gits on here calling us classic owners chav'c etc has really got to me. Ive had so much fun in the car and have really enjoyed it. Heres a pic for you all
But Ive decided to move on, car is in the autotrader next week. So it is with this that I say fairwell as I took delivery of my new toy last night. Heres a couple of pics for you, taken on a phone so they aint that good..
You didnt really think I could leave the Subaru fold now did you?

I havent stopped smiling since I picked it up last night. I have to say it really does have a smoother delivery of power and the road noise is greatly reduced. It feels a lot beefier (if there is such a word) on the road! Cant wait to 5 now to get out of this office and drive it again!

Yea that is my MY00, its in the autotrader nect week. Im going to be really sad to see it go tbh, but I got a good deal on this one so I couldnt refuse. Its a completely different driving experience. The delivery of power is a lot smoother, and it really creeps up on you. The gearing is so different, 1st and 2nd you through the rev range before you know whats happening. Such fun!!!

cheers pete, just got made a good offer and decided to jump. I wasnt worried about what other people think, i said from the start that if one of these came up at the right price I would go for it. Loving every minute of it, but need to get rid of the classic now. Anyone any interest?

YOUR MAD
U have got to be M A D, changing from a classic to a modern SUBARU, you will be towing a caravan next.
The classic is a drivers car and the new model is a F A M I L Y car, I recon its on the lines of a Volvo on safety and electronic aids to help the driver.
Still you should not bow down to peer pressure, anyway I will STILL wave as I pass you in my TypeR.
Enjoy happy careful driving with SAGA.

Chav! Ha! I am afraid around Notts, i am seeing far too many ****ed with Classics and they are chavved up to ****. Sad, very sad.
I mean, someone i know has got blue dragons down the side of a silver classic! I mean ffs, that screams chav if ever i heard it. And you aint seen how big the damn mud flaps are, i swear they came off a 40 ft trailer wagon. Makes all you proper classic owners look ****e. But i tell you what, i still think the classic makes one awesome burble and the sound is awesome compared to my played with MY03 WRX.
And nice sti btw
