thanks for all the info --- no definitive model stands out -- I will have to get into the differences and sort myself out I guess -- would it help to know I am looking for a 2005 and budget bout £5k (or less if poss) ??

I am just seeing the Forester for the first time as a possibility - I need advice on which model would give most bang for the buck and whether the handling would be similar ........

OKAY - now I have seen the turbo Forester - much difference in speed and handling compared to the impreza wagon??

thanks for all info -- now looking at the legacy gtb twin scroll - if this is an import are there any potential problems if it is imported??

Is the Legacy that much bigger car than the Impreza???? Is the power to weight ratio poorer as a result or should 'nt I be bothered?

Thanks for your comments:- was the gb270 wagon made in 2005?? Because of the Road tax this is the area I am looking at........

Thanks for your input Matt -- I am not sure I understand the full meaning of your last post....the last time anyone referred to the wife it was a criticism of my driving -- so could you clarify " it needs the saloon wings and bumper" for me -- remember I am totally new to subaru and its foibles.....

Hi Noobie for a scoobie here again Loved my recent test drive of an STI prodrive with 300bhp in a saloon version Does the (2005) estate wagon version move as well, handle the same, and give the same driver (smile) experience?? Do tell.......
