Default newbie.

Hi All,

Looking to get rid of my Megane sport 225 for a Blob or hawk eye wrx/sti
After 10 years of jap ownership i went and bought a french car

Never again, any big musts to look out for or general help would be great,
Renault is on pistonheads now, want the Subaru in the next month or so.

Whats the difference in drive of a PPP sorted wrx V's a uk sti ?

Thanks

welcome mate, in terms of wrx ppp vs sti uk. the sti is a lot better equipped out of the box. brembo brakes, 6 speed box, stronger engine, nicer seats, visually nicer too.

go for the sti.
