so here I was looking about at Subaru impreza's and the likes when I stumble upon this right aggressive looking 6 mps so gets the info on it gets a test drive and lets just say ive still no been to see the scoobys or the cupra r I set out to see as I put a deposit on the car that day so its a 56 plate with cherished number included with a full service history 67k and 2 owners run as sweet as a nut no smoke or vvt ticking so fingers crossed I have found a wee gem its pretty much standard with exception to colour coded rx8 wheels,h&r -35mm springs,team heko wind deflectors,and yellow lamin x fog lights heres a couple of pics    excuse picture quality it they were taken on my phone but believe me there will be a lot more where those came from I don't have any plans for the time being due to getting married next year so im going to enjoy the car for what it is for a while unless the right mod at the right price comes along

Ok, just had a chat with him.
He never bothered with the vvt so its still the original.
He had to take the transfer box off the road for 3 months to find one, but he sorted it, so no worries on that front.
