Default Got another scoob :)

Well just been on to a dealer to confirm a deal on my 3rd Impreza

This will be my 3rd as i've had a classic and a bugeye, this new 1 is a 2003 blobeye which looks better than the bug because of the headlights (well i think so) - are there any other changes between bug and blob?

just trying to get some insurance quotes now as sainsburys want £1000+ when i phoned them even though the quotes i got through confused came back at £700 ???????????

Roll on saturday when i pick it up, then it's mods time (exhaust, spoiler, etc) same as on bug

Just a WRX (due to insurance quotes)

Loved my old bugeye with all the mods i did but had to sell it when i changed jobs as it was too risky to leave on an ind est at night, got another job since then which means we have electronic gates and security so new one should be safe

Bought a 53 plate Audi 2.0tdi sport almost 2 weeks ago and hate it so the scoob was a straight swap (worth around £9k)

try Subaru Insurance 0800 707 6636 or Subaru Insured - Subaru owners specialist insurance scheme for all Subaru Impreza, Legacy, Forester, WRX and STi for Subaru UK and get an on line quote.

Got my WRX SL 2004 plate fully comp for £658 with mods declared of ss exhaust including decat, uprated discs and pads along with 18's fitted and an STI rear spoiler.

They were the best of all the ones I tried.... Ad Flux, Elephant, tesco's and all the ones in the back of the car mags.

Don't know why this is but Admiral turned out to be the cheapest for me on my WRX300 (WRX PPP) at £480 fully comp. I tried Keith Michaels and A-plan but the difference was around 50 quid more. Not saying Admiral will def be cheaper but it might be worth a look.
