You are all going to slate me for it, but I quite like this.

If you are talking about who I think you are talking about, I know where he lives. The car can be seen on a trailer in the driveway from time to time.

Sometimes, at night, when he is sleeping: I touch it.

I do know at least 1 other person with an Impreza Turbo, he fraternises with MR2 Turbo owners and they discuss how many ASBOs they've had and bore the pants off people by talking about horsepowers and RONs. They work in the middle echelons of retail management.

funny enough i'm fine doing the same thing in my BM cos i naturally react these days in a RWD way. after 3 RWD cars over 3 and a bit years i've kinda got used to how they twitch and how to catch it ect. so when i get in a FWD car i drive it like a FWD owner would driving a RWD car. a bit more carefully :)

Little twitches are ok, I kinda get the feeling from the Vee though, if you have a high speed big twitch, you're ditchbound :-)

Me too, he was our sysadmin for a while, but didn't work out. Late 20's early 30's, spent 6 months backpacking across central america, lived by himself in Saddleworth, and competed in road cycle racing.

I've seen a Westfield owner with a car key stuck under his knee-cap, he "submarined" from his seat and his knee hit the ignition switch area. Looked painful....

As I'm sure you're aware those engines have a very restrictive intake setup and react well to breathing mods :-p You know you want throttle bodies...

I don't, you know.

I quite like them standard - good fun to drive, and it should be fairly (1) reliable if I leave it basically standard.

(1) That's by Peugeot standards, anyway. ;-)
