Hi everyone, saw someone mention this site on PH so I checked it out, looks friendly here so thought I'd sign up 
Started off with this, 1.8 NA.
Loved it to bits. Sadly a number of things started going wrong with it and the arches had started to perish at a time where I was pretty strapped for cash. Sold it to a lad near Stoke where its got slammed on its rear canoe with deep dish wheels, I'm told it now lives wayyyy down south somewhere.
A good while later I was running my modified Impreza every day as it was my only car, and decided I wanted another 5 to run along side it. A mariner blue one this time! I love that colour. Sadly the car itself was a total nail and I never should have bought it. Water pump let go a week or so after picking it up from the seller as a final kick in the teeth. Sold it cheap to a young lad who probably turned it into a skidder.
In typical fashion my mate decides to put his fully working one for sale after all this has happened, I snapped it up and I'm still running it today over a year later. 1993, 1.6 manual import. Since owning it I've refreshed the shocks and springs all round, one shock was blown so naturally I took this as an excuse to replace EVERYTHING!! New rear calipers too, new discs and pads all around and servicing etc. It's a great example in my eyes and I'm hoping not to get rid of it.
Stuck an off set plate bracket & some nice looking BBS RAs on it, but I may spray up my daisies and chuck them back on, the car felt much more sharp with those fitted.
Thanks for reading
