Pete,
You bet.... it is insured with a Subaru performance car specialist. If you get within £200 of what I pay, I will deliver the car to you FOC. :D

I am 79 though! :lol:

What is that Del an S2?
Its an S4.
5.0 V8
I wanted to notch it up to the full 170mph on the way up to the show, but I kept running out of space in the outside lane. Uncle CHI took a vid in the car. I'll see if he's hosted it...

Got my car Impreza Spec C being featured in next months Redline magazine, followed by a front cover feature in another magazine for xmas. Also a key performance parts manufacturer is featuring the car in their National advertising campaign. :)

Car did really well this year, winning overall, the last two rounds of the ScoobySprint Championship.

Roll on 2010. :D
