Dogconker Posted May 7, 2014 Posted May 7, 2014 About time And was it Gavin rushing to get his Magic resin smeared over someone's windscreen ? It might be about time but what a crap advert, when you consider how they could have sold these cars, where's the fun and excitement. All they're saying is if you're not of country gentry with 2.4 children and a Labrador maybe you should look at something else. Most people in the US who buy these are surf dude typesI'll let you know what happens with the van man, didn't get his plate as wasn't expecting him to do that Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
Pommy Posted May 7, 2014 Posted May 7, 2014 Started modifying the radio facia for my tablet install. Nearly fitted the tablet, need to get that done and then get the head unit in the bottom and tidy it up nicely so a bit of work to do yet. 1

Oh it never ends mate when you start I'm still thinking of !Removed! to do with mine like putting USB ports in parts of the car so I don't have to lean in the boot to use the USB stick and sat nav Bluetooth for my phone :D I think it's a stage I have got to when I can't take my car anymore in power so looked else where to mod :D It might be about time but what a crap advert, when you consider how they could have sold these cars, where's the fun and excitement.

Most people in the US who buy these are surf dude types I agree but then it becomes just another Qashqai advert of look how much fun you can have by driving like a bellend through the built up city streets :D

I think they could have made a bit more of the off-road capability, showing it driving in the snow or something like that Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
Gambit Posted May 7, 2014 Posted May 7, 2014 No I see what you mean wouldn't have hurt show it's all round potential, as in farm or rescue type scene's. !Removed! hell I think I should become Subarus Advertising department I could do a better job I'm sure of it ;)
Dogconker Posted May 7, 2014 Posted May 7, 2014 Still it's an advert which is more than ever Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
Gambit Posted May 7, 2014 Posted May 7, 2014 to be fair I think they should just show your picture on the advertisements it didn't look the same on the advert I think that bit of black costley plastic changes the car a lot and worth the extra £££'s
Dogconker Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 I agree, I reckon it'll be much easier to sell on. Saw a dark grey wrx hatchback today near Teesside. First one I've seen for ages Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
tom_gr7 Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 I drove to Asda in mine. I'm thinking about getting a little dash cam, something relatively cheap, small and discrete. Oh and that allows me to use a micro SD card (or non micro).
Gambit Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 I keep thinking Gopro for me but the quality for day to day use of them cameras is pretty good

Gambit Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 intrested to see what the nighvison looks like amazing how cheap they are though.
Gaulson Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 Yeah the nightvision does sound interesting, could have many uses. Think I will buy one now as the gopro is a bit of a pain to set up for everyday use. Good for when you want to record some decent roads though :)
Gaulson Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 Have you heard of Drift HD Cams Gambit? I might get rid of my GoPro and get one of them instead :) As for the Subaru matter, realised it's not so fun driving in the wet atm... my front end up slides in every corner :( . I have a pair of Yokohamas to put on front so they match the back so will do that asap!
Gambit Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 No not heard of them until now just having a look at them.
Dogconker Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 I'm binning mine off back to Amazon as it's not working properly. The transcend drivepro200 seems the best for the money at £79 from Amazon and it uses micro SD. This is the one I'm getting next instead of the cheapo one. Vids on YouTube look pretty impressive. You can even download vids straight to your phone via wifi without unplugging it Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
stants Posted May 8, 2014 Author Posted May 8, 2014 Have a look at some of the phone apps you can get, mine cost under two quid and is fantastic upload straight to youtube edit auto save when accident etc. Unfortunately I have to delete all my vids after a couple of days as I didn't set it to auto over write and it chews through my 16 gig card, have two short clips saved so I'll pop them up Sent from my SM-T210

Gambit Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 Oh the Loop i !Removed! hate leeds for that :) And I agree but she did look blonde and fit ;)
Dogconker Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 How dare you drive your car where she wants too! You deserve all you get. Incidentally the idiot in the van yesterday, had his fleet manager on today asking for more info so they can track down which driver it was, as he was suitably impressed with his standard of driving. Will see what happens. Have decided though that I'm returning that cheap dash cam and just ordered a new transcend one Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk 1
4758nigel Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 usual daily driving (school run etc) then bought my second impreza everything but the engine figured i could take the parts off it i need (wlloy wheels,rear diff, rear shafts and bonnet maybe some other bits ;)) then i'll be breaking the rest 1

That's why I'm looking at a dash cam Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
