To be honest I've not decided. I was going to choose the best day weather-wise, but I'm thinking Sunday would be better and maybe less busy?

Nice one buddy. It's meant to be a really nice show, and the tickets are worth £16 pound each. This is the blurb on the email for the tickets.... "Subaru are key sponsors of this years Lowther Show, set in the stunning Cumbrian countryside. As a friend of Subaru, we would like to offer you free tickets to the show, complimentary speciality coffees, and the best seats in the house - theres no catch! It would be great to see you there." I wonder what to expect reading that?

Looks like I may be the only Subaru going then.

Hi guys. I've received some free tickets through Subaru for this show! Just wondering if anyone else has been sent the free invites, and who else is going? I'm hoping the weather stays nice and dry! :)

I used to own an Alfa 156 GTA back in 2004, in was a 2002 plate in moonstone blue with a rear-whale fin spoiler. I loved that car, it was like the batmobile inside with all the black piped leather. Unfortunately though, it was a dog of a car that once the warranty ran out I didn't dare keep!

My Sti is due at the dealer on the 30th. Would like to have it ran-in before doing this run. I'll have a look at the calendar today and nail a date.

Nice one. You can lead the run over the Tubbs if you want buddy? I'll go at the back and mop up any stragglers?

Hoping to get my sti at the end of the month - just waiting on the transporter arriving at the dealer. Still planning on doing this. Will be meeting in Richmond (not far from the A1) and I'll take the group on a lovely drive up to Tanhill Pub, then over the Buttertubs run, then stop off in Hawes for something to eat before I'll lead everyone back to Leeming Services outside Bedale which is back onto the A1 so people can get back home. Just to mention this now - this route gets quite busy through the summer and with 2 kids in the back of the car I won't be speeding. I just want to enjoy being in a convoy of nice cars, through a beautiful area of countryside on a day where folks can meet and have a natter. I once led the RS club on a Tanhill run due to the guy who organised the day not turning up. I was bullied into putting my foot down wherever possible by club members. It was a knightmare. About 25 cars got lost that day, and I vowed to never be persuaded to do that again. People come from miles away on these days out, so speeding for me is NOT on the agenda.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaagggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I want my Sti!

Still planning on sorting this day by the way...........WHEN I have my car.

I haven't actually DONE anything in my Subaru today, as it's sat on a boat floating across to the uk. However, I chose a reg plate that is going onto it today. Does that count?

To be honest guys, the drive up to Tan Hill, followed by the Buttertubs is a lovely drive. Normally after the Tubs comes a drive into Hawes before driving back along some cracking roads to Leyburn heading back to the A1 at Leeming. The meeting point is in Richmond, not far off the A1, in a big Supermarket carpark, where we then set off towards Tanhill by driving up to a place called Reeth. It's the sort of day that doesn't need daft/fast driving as the scenery is so stunning.

Hi guys. I've been a member of the FocusRSOC owners club for 4 years now, and in May I'll be handing over the keys of my latest RS with a heavy heart for the new WRX Sti as it's time for a change. I've been involved over the years with organising a few RS club days, and was wondering what the interest would be among Subaru owners for a Whitby day, and a Buttertubs run day (visiting Tan Hill - the highest pub in Britain) I've always enjoyed the getting together/meeting new owners, followed by a bit of sensible driving, enjoying the North Yorkshire scenery, and making passers-by smile at the convoy of performance cars going by. Would you all support something like this?

This is the best American review......
