What have you done to your Subaru today ?
I just add a call from a Lovely sounding lass from Subaru UK. A few months ago i requested a brochure for the new Impreza, was feeling a little noisy. Anyway, I told her that I'd prefer one of the new legacies or outbacks rather than an impreza. So she's sending me a brochure for the new outback and asked me if she could call me back in a few weeks to see what I thought. lol, yes, i will be honest i only spoke with her because she had a lovely soft English accent and sounded very cute.

Starting within 30 seconds
I only found this out because of another legacy owner at NBO. Instead of locking/unlocking the car. Put the key in the ignition, turn the key,but before you turn it over press the little button on your key fob and you can then turn the engine over. :)

I demand camping! Camp on a Friday night with bbq's n booze. Show/meet on a Saturday then camp/bbq that night, then go home on the Sunday. So exactly how Japfest 1 would be setup.

Gutted to hear about the troubles Dogconker, I don't know about engines but have you considered having Martin and Dave at Sheffield Subaru have a look at it for a second opinion? They've been spot on every time I've been there. Or would that invalidate your warranty with Subaru?

But club access is from 6.30 and we must be parked by 9am. So how does that work lol?

I think a seagull shat on my car. Took me a good ten mins to clean off, was all over the roof, rear window, boot and spoiler. Good job I've got some Poorboys Bird Sh#t remover. - Which is awesome btw

I was thinking the same thing, I've got a little gas cooker, can bring a griddle pan, burgers, sausages, buns etc etc. But i think it says on the ticket, no BBQ's allowed. Worth a risk?

What about Moto Services. Junction 23A M1 Derby, Castle Donington DE74 2TN 2.9 miles from the track. A bit close, probably other clubs there though.
