Re: what the heck is with all the svxs in worcester ma?

I have never seen another SVX here in Ireland. They were never sold here, although they may have been sold in the North.

Even driving round England, nobody knows what it is. They sold approx 280 cars over a six year period into one of the largest markets in Western Europe. So even if you used one as a daily driver in England, you would probably never meet another, unless you went to a car meet for SVXs.

In terms of watching them sell over the years I have noticed that there appears to be a bigger concentration of UK SVXs owned by people in the West Country, Devon and Cornwall, a strip maybe from Bristol to Plymouth. I don't know why that is the case. Maybe a high quality Subaru sales outfit, maybe the locals are less hung up on German cars that Greater Londoners, whatever, they have more SVXs there than the rest of the UK.
