Just got my Bug/Blob back on the road after a year off and can't seem to stop looking at classics but which one would people go for? It will basically be for the same type of money i get for mine so Type R is out of the question

Loads of work gone into that but i think i would prefer something fairly standard so i get stuff done, I get bored easily so better to start standard then at least ive always got room for improvement

go for ver 3 sti ra as they have the most aggresive ecu.
took me ages to find a standard ver 3, good thing is i paid £4500 and they go for more now so no depreciation (apart from engine rebuild! lol)

Seen that one and would be a good starting point but decided ive already owned 2 classics and always fancied blue or white so more looking at something like this

Thought so mate, judging by your post, looks a lovely car, but he seems to be over selling it, but you never know, a bargain may be had.

Nice hole in the washer bottle, if he hasn't got the V5 how's he no its reg as a gl. Becareful if insuring a Impreza Wrx or Sti that's reg as a GL cos the boys in blue have been lifting such vehicles if they a wrx or Sti & insured as a gl insurance is void & vehicles have been crushed Surprised

Im not that lucky with cars drew so it would be insured properly and as for changing the washer bottle even i could manage that and anything more technical you get the job anyway Very Happy
