BIGD Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Good evening everyone hope your all ok? I have a dilemma! Just sold my WRX blobeye. I have to say it was a very upsetting time. Anyway! I would like I bit more space, good power, all the toys and low mileage. Sounds simple mmmmm no! I love the Forster STI but all power no toys. I like the SV all toys no power. The legacy in nice to but don't like the new model looks like a vectra yuck !! So the question is what to go for do I drop the power or the toys? Or is there a medium? Got about 12k to spend would love to hear your thoughts and opinions please? Thanks Dave Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIGD Posted September 10, 2016 Author Share Posted September 10, 2016 Yeah I know lol Subaru fans always say the forester but all the weird people with other cars say everything but Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGD Posted September 10, 2016 Author Share Posted September 10, 2016 The other idea was an XV 2 litre and drop a super charger or a turbo on [emoji51] Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david1972 Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Has to be the Foz sti for me too...rock solidly holding in value as well Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Id Buy something with all the toys and a blown engine then build a powerful engine to go in it . But I can never leave anything stock for long lol . If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGD Posted September 11, 2016 Author Share Posted September 11, 2016 Well savage you are the first !!! I think I've seen a supercharger kit new for 2.5k to fit the XV and that has everything cruise control automatic wipers lights etc Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGD Posted September 11, 2016 Author Share Posted September 11, 2016 The other thing is why don't and car sales reply ??? Do they not want 12 k got to admit that is frustrating!! Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr B Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 XV is a looker, well toyed out & practical, not overly spacious but better than a saloon. supercharge it and add some chassis bracing, brake upgrade & you have something interesting & different. Shame they didn't do a 2.2l (2.2 engine was great compared to 2.5 series) as the 2l is a bit weak for awd suv, 2.2 would of been nice blown either by tc or sc .

BIGD Posted September 11, 2016 Author Share Posted September 11, 2016 Very true I like the sound of that [emoji3] I remember my dad had the 2.2 legacy that was a nice piece of kit for a H reg and went some too !!

Gambit Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Oh shame been nice car. Well xv with mods be a first in this country that i know of so would be a good option too. Be difficult for me to choose the fozzie sti or a tunned xv. 😮 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGD Posted September 11, 2016 Author Share Posted September 11, 2016 Yeah that's true didn't think of that. The supercharged kit is about £2500 Then I thought a legacy 3.0L supercharged [emoji854] Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
