Hi Guys, I am new to the mps scene, I had been looking for a 6 mps for a couple months, I knew that if one came up that took my fancy I would have to have it, well after quite a stressfull day on Friday I came back home with (fingers crossed) a good example, which considering I pretty much bought it blind I am fairly happy with. Matt

Welcome.
Be sure to raise any queries you have with this bunch of very knowledgeable members as you get to know your new beast. Become a member for £20 per annum and you will be able to access various guides to help you along. Also have a look at the "meets" section. I think there is a SW group.

My plans are fairly tame really, I came from a 08 hatch wrx where the sky was the limit as to what you can do with them, It was stage 2+. from this I know I want to remap the 6, but I am never going through the hastle of taking my cats on and off again for MOT's it was such a pain, so without a great deal of knowledge id like a compromise of a sport cat system, just because cats and Dpf's (a whole different story) are the devils work. I had a 440 mile round trip to collect the 6 without seeing it in the flesh only to find out when I had arrived the car had been sold to 2 people and they were hoping I was going to be a no show.

Interesting story. Looks very clean, must be one of the last ones they made. Nice wheels. Is it modified engine wise or standard? I bought my 3 mps blind (totally) but I have not had any issues with it at all and I have had it for 22 months! Well pleased and lucky
