Hi Dayo,

Does Lincolnshire have cars yet? I thought the wheel was yet to be introduced! :lol:

Have you been to look at any to date? Good luck with the search.

Have you tried Knobby's car -link below-? (It's not from Lincolnshire, granted)

haha the wheels are square here!

no i had not seen his car for sale, it looks a good one tho! a good 150 miles from me but id be willing to take the risk and travel all that way.

iv currently got a 2009 astra im trying to sell, as soon as thats gone ill have to money to buy one!

iv had a 1995 v2 sti about 2 year ago, sold it and went "sensible" so my mum says haha to a diesel astra!

diesel just aint me! i want a scooby again! but i dont want a normal scooby that everyone has..........so i think the wr1 is for me :lol:

Tell me about it! I bought mine from a dealer in Reading and they drove it up to me in Aberdeen.
Good luck with your hunt, it's worth it. :wink:

Yes it was! He who dares Rodney....he who dares! :lol:



I reconed it was a Subaru dealer and with a Subaru warranty soI was fairly safe, and on the plus side it came with a Blitz Nur-spec R that the dealer didn't know about. :norty:

You should travel to buy one, The drive home if you buy it is great.

I too took a gamble and bought it without seeing it. It was from a guy on this site though, so it had a history and was known to members. The chap also worked at a pretty decent car company and looked after it.

A few pop up here now and again, so I would keep checking. Just be patient mate...the last thing you want to do is rush it and end up with a bag o bolts.

Think of it this way...the longer you wait the cheaper they will be!
