My wife's car. It's a Spec C and she loves it.
Sold our Exige because this made the Lotus feel dull. Different animal from a normal STi.

Apologies, I missed the daily driver bit. I was thinking this was a weekend toy.

Out of interest, what does a good Saph go for these days?

I know the Escorts are big money now. A few people laughed when we advertised one at £20k last year at work, sold it though.
I don't need a daily driver - i was just alluding to a desire to spend more tine driving a car than under it with a spanner in my hand!

Looks wonderful.

Would love gold wheels for added effect.

Brilliant car the Spec C (but he wont be getting one of these for £5k unless its in bits).

Odd thing about Spec C (I've had 2) is they are the most hard-core extreme Impreza, fantastic to drive hard, but they are often driven by women as daily drivers, as yours is.
EG My first Spec C was sold onto a female school teacher, and my last one (an S202) had previously been owned by a woman who had used it for 5 years as her daily commuter and took it up to 90,000 miles.
