    yup that's the one I said, the hawkeye I'm not too keen on the bugeye one, especially the ones with the 'morette' style headlights.

Personally I like the hatchback version, though the saloon reminds me of a chipmunk with it's unappealing rear end.
    They are a high performance, but also a high maintenance engine, pretty sure the service intervals are only 4,500 miles. You can buy the older ones pretty cheap but they've usually been owned by some *** who's put lexus lights on and a cheap backbox, so it sounds terrible and isn't timed properly. I do 'like' the hatchback model but IMO it's 'elders' are the ones to have.

    i'm the star in the reasonably priced car!

    Why does he bring home cars to test drive anyway?

    He works at a pretty big garage and is the general manager, so most the time he tests them to make sure there working, or sometimes we live near a delivery so he delivers them aswell. He also swaps his car because it's a big estate, for the bosses cars if they need a big car for some reason.

    I am sure his clients love to know their cars are ragged down a road at 130mph

    couldn't agree more. chavs have a habbit of putting stupid exhausts and revving the nuts off them. then they blow.

    Yer lol! Most the time he takes them around the track. The WRX STI was one of his bosses cars, so it's not too bad. Lol.
