Looks a real sleeper in that livery. I know they are supposed to be a pretty good car but I must admit to not being that bothered about them. Too many boy racers ruining them by adding decals and loud exhausts that make them too boomy, around here they are. It makes me want to check the plugs as they always sound wrong! Anyway, at least you are trying a few different cars out, that's what it's all about. Keep posting updates as interested in what you do next.

Sleeper............nice one.

I was considering a WRX but they are all driven by chavs locally so I got the ZS.

Awesome looking motor, would love it.

Went out in a 400 bhp one, blew your mind away, so much power and brakes were up to the job.

Had a look for one, but the ones I could afford ?4kish, were all dogs, looked they had just come off 2 or 3 hard rallies. Bits of body falling off, so didnt bother.

Yours looks mint, good find.

:wave:

You will not be disappointed with that mate. Although the RA is a lot noisier than the WRX it feels so much lighter!

The bonnet is a good example. I've felt heavier carbon ones!!!!

One of my mates had a 1996 black one which ran 358bhp on the rollers at Surrey Rolling Road. He sold it after we had a trip to Southend one night, I was in my 'tuned' 220 turbo, we did a rolling start accel from about 70mph to max speed and we ran exactly neck and neck until his topped out at 135mph due to the close ratio box and my Rover carried on till the speedo needle wouldnt move any more lol!

Another mate currently has a blue facelft RA with a limited edition plaque but it has all the STi gubbins ie electrics all round etc.

Just needs a spoiler though IMO

I keep wanting a latter bug or blob eye but cant afford an sti and evos 6+ are well out of budget.

Maybe next year.
