I got the grand welcome the day I brought my SVX home from the Ford dealer!

The large amount of them probably adds to why I see so many SVX's. Which makes me wonder. Do we have business cards or something I could place on wipers? I swear I see at LEAST 5 a week. However almost always in parking lots, like at the grocery store. It woudl be nice to invite them to the club.

I know for sure I've appreciated being here, maybe they will too. Just an idea.

Look in "jscourse" personal locker for some cards.

Re: Ireland

We have tons of Imprezas, most 2wd, but lots of 4wd turbos. I don't think I have ever seen a 2.5 RS. There is punitive taxation and insurance here for anything over 2 litres, and of course the turbos will give you the same or more horsepower.

Those Forester things are all over the place now, verrry popular with the urban outdoors clean green welly set, you know, the ones who have to drive up a lane to the pony club.

Have never seen a Brat, don't know what it is, and have never seen an XT except in photos. This suits me fine. I think the Fuji people recognised that they had built the ugliest coupe in the world with the XT, and went to Italy to redress the balance. So because we end up with the SVX I forgive the XT, but I don't want any of them in the same county as my car.

I have seen a few of the 22rb 2door Imprezas, they are really nice, would make a good swap for an SVX with more interior space, but are serious money.

The new WRX you boys like so much is not selling here at all. They have emasculated the previously aggressive styling, the speed boys don't like them at all.

The only way to describe a brat.....

if you know what a El Camino looks like, or a Dodge Rampage....but smaller.

Ugly as sin, but they get the job done...I guess.

My friend picked one up at as auction a few years back for $25. (We worked there, so we got it cheap). We drove it around some dirt hills until we took it off a jump and landed the center of it on top of a small hill. All four wheels off the ground!

We ended up pushing it off with a Jeep. It rolled off the hill and keep rolling into a ditch, where we finally got a wrecker to pick it out of.

Ahh the memories.

Ryan

Brat-worst?

Thanks for the info guys.

Looks kinda cute. Yeah, I like it.

Notice there is no "Bring back the XT" section.

I am probably offending lots of XT fans. Sorry people, I must be allergic to the shape.
