Not impressed at all...

Postby G_Sleigh » Tue Feb 15, 2005 12:40 pm

Hi everyone, Its my first post on here, Hope everyone is o.k.

Right why am i not impressed?

Well being 21 my insurance only allows me to get a scooby WRX 05. Still loving the look and gonna put the STI spoiler on.....

My question was what colour shall i have? I saw this photo below and fell in love with the colour, just to find out that its a WR1 only colour :(

Gutted. So black it is then. lol.

the grey/siler 05s look great specially when you add gold wheels to them.

at 21 you will never get insured on an import - believe me I tried time and time again!!! WR1 you can get insured on no probs - if you are prepared to pay between 3-5k - like I had to :roll:

The difference between the WR1 and the WRX is crazy - it's a completely different car and worth incurring all the extra costs for.

If you can truely afford a scoob (not talking about the initial purchasing costs but the upkeep, petrol, servicing and modification bug you will get ill with :wink: ) then buy a WR1. It is the most complete standard UK spec scoob that you can buy bar none!!!

i think the ice blue WRX were just EU imports so insurance as UK spec.... but as you say WR1 would be better for him..... not me..... :wink:

Got my insurance sorted.

Luckily i own and built a car parts company www.GSMotorsport.com, being in the trade i can get insurance without cripplying my self to much. STILL a heavy price.

I decided on UK spec not import though
