I've been to Middlesbrough this morning and come away a bit underwhelmed to be fair. The wrx auto was all scratched up on the corners of the bumpers and the interior wasn't great. They bug eye sti smelt awful inside and the steering wheel was delaminated. There was only 1 of 4 Foz cross sports on site and it looked like it hadn't been washed for months. Interior was ok. Red legacy blitzen was probably the pick of the bunch. If ever you want a classic mini though, it's the place to go...some absolute beauties there today Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Great stuff @Mr B thank you Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

@Mr B please can you explain what makes it super simple etc for us novices. For example, would a company such as this be reputable, trustworthy etc http://www.japan-partner.com Also, once the vehicle arrived at the port in the UK, what would you have to do then? I suppose I'm nervous about not having someone inspect, road test the vehicle for me before committing to buy. Thank you so much for any help or advice you can offer (us all)

Looks very nice; welcome. The black suits the gold wheels in a JPS kind of way (for those of that era [emoji6]) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You posh tart [emoji14] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

sorry to hear that - you won't get anything better for 500 quid though imho

amazes me when folk don't wash their car first....

Decided as I'm off work next week I'm going to try and squeeze a trip down to that place in Middlesbrough in [emoji41] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

They are the SG variants...you can add XTEN to that list...all the xt variants are turbo, the rest normally aspirated

Had one follow me on the A66 once...thought it was you; it wasn't lol

Thought so, with you bookmarking the bling already haha [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

you still keen on an xv mate? - remember you looking at that one at NBO last year

Foresters are much more 'under the radar'....those who know, know. It was my first scoob and I loved mine...just gave me the need for more ponies, which still drives me on now. Reckon the Foz I used to have will run forever if it continues to be serviced Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Been naughty today emailing a dealer with questions about a car...my bad Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You scooby is spot on though mate? Thankfully yes [emoji3] I'd be dangerous if it wasn't haha There's one more Subaru in me yet though, and come the time it'll be turbo charged [emoji41][emoji123]

You scooby is spot on though mate? Thankfully yes [emoji3] I'd be dangerous if it wasn't haha

Having one of those oh too common days again today...looking enviously at other peoples cars and thinking I earn a good wage; I deserve better haha Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Do update this thread if you go....they've had a couple of them in stock for about a year now, which should work in your favour hopefully....the more you know, and all that [emoji6] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This would worry me....there are enough around not to need to take this risk

The travel or not question is always a toughie....I ended up driving 2.5hrs each way for my outback, but it was well worth it. I almost negotiated the deal by email before viewing, which helped [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I do think they are pushing it asking £8k for them - the one due into the south east soon is priced at £7k - think its David Hendry in Wiltshire http://www.dhcars.co.uk/usedcars-subaru.php In grey - looks lovely

I hope so...I want one too lol [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That must be a new one they've secured (it's manual though)...it's the same place have the sti replica en route...it's on auto trader

The blue sti replica @ £8k?
