half list price if two years old...

Is it the red b*gger they used as trackday control last year at Marham?

Jeez that was a swift mobile, dealer's runabout from some place in Eastangular.

I dont often drool at modern cars, but for the Monaro I will make a rare exception.

I've just joined the ranks of Impreza owners - picked myself up a 2005 WRX with the Prodrive pack added. Its brutal! 

I thought I would miss the Alfa and all the stress it caused me. Alfa what Alfa!

I would love to go to this gathering but I'm having to go to the outlaws. Poo.

[Perdu]

hmm

it IS the right red!

Did it have traces of "demonstrator" stickers everywhere?

I really lurve that car

awesome!

And it is a proper car not a hi-falutin' rootin'-tootin' can't use it on Monday to go to work car...

nice.

re: the McRae meetup, having been partially responsible for arranging 1000 Sprites and Midgets at Gaydon in May I hope this comes off for the organisers.

A fitting tribute to a great guy

respect chaps!

[Robbo SPS]

I wonder if other scoobies would be allowed..... ??


Legacy for instance ?

[Jules G]

Robo, all makes of Scoobies are allowed, one of my team Nigel has a Forrester (ex imp and legacy owner) he's hooking up with some other LMer's from the Essex Scooby owners Club and heading over to Banbury.

I for one plan on setting up a chair with a few beers on my local bridge over the M6 to watch the convoy go past and hanging a scottish flag and a Subaru banner (If my local dealer will lend me one for the day) to salute those taking part.

Chris please give a wave for me.

Hi there,

As one of the organisers of the McRae event, I just had to register to say Sir, you are a gentleman. Yes, we're Googling and amazed at the support we're seeing for our little (or not so little!) tribute event from right across the globe.

I'll be running a stickered-up black 07 WRX up towards the front of the convoy - if I see a guy in a chair with a beer and a Scotland flag I'll be sure to give you a wave

All the best

I want to be in that convoy in my mates Impreza P1 

Only problem being is that he will be in mexico then and he is a tad funny about handing the keys over 

Will post again if my plan comes together 

The twat wont hand over the keys!!! 

I will be at the start of the event with a couple of mates in the STILL FOR SALE red fiesta ST.

[Chris24]

Just been to Charnock Richard services, and wow what a sight to behold ! Something like 600 Subaru's all in one place. You couldn't swing a stick without hitting a Subaru.

The traffic officers were well happy once they all left ! LOL !

The gathering has been filmed by the Fifth Gear Crew and will be on the box either next monday or the one after. All the Sccoby's formed the name Colin at Prodrives test facility near Warwick. Nigel from my lot was in a puke coloured forrester which was in the N for Colin. I will post some photos of the day when he sends them over to me in the next day or so. He's still grinning from the day as he had his photo taken with Vicki BH from the show

By the sounds of things you'd have had trouble working out which one Chris was as there were loads of people hanging over bridges! 

It looks fantastic, I'll look out for the Fifth Gear footage.  What a fantastic tribute to a fantastic man. 

[Jules G]

Well, Nigel has finally sent me his best photo of the day



The slot on fifth gear is now available on U tube, linky is:
