My Impreza UK300

[chris-ST220]

Picking my new Impreza UK300 up on Wednesday. Build number 91 of 300

















Has the prodrive performance package fitted which should give circa 246bhp. Suspect its running a bit more though as it has a sports cat downpipe also.
18inch prodrive wheels
6 pot AP Racing Brakes
Later model bonnet vent and a halfords special grille both of which will be getting binned for the standard items asap.
Has the prodrive centre section but a different backbox of unknown origin....will be on the lookout for a prodrive item as the one on it is a bit too loud for my taste.
Prodrive headlights, rear spoiler and front splitter.
Oh and private plate included too. Car is originally on a 51 plate

Cant wait to pick her up Wednesday

I think they look much better with the prodrive lights...not a fan of the standard lights though.
Im more concerned with how the driving experience is because no Impreza can really be called a nice looking car

Up to last week Id never seen one out on the road. Then ive managed to find 3 for sale within a 20 mile radius. Wonder how many of the original 300 are out there?

Bugger what it looks like, its the way it drives right ?

Been looking at chopping my motor in for a Sti PPP, might have to drop the PPP for cheaper insurance tho.

How much you paying on this ?

IMO the PPP aint worth the money unless the car is still under warranty. You can get much better power gains and for cheaper by using a Subaru specialist. IRC scoobyclinic offer a stage 1 upgrade on the newage STI`s for about £1500 which gives around 320-330bhp. Im sure PPP is quite a bit more expensive but not sure without checking.

Im paying around £1000 fully comprehensive with 7 yrs no claims, no accidents,convictions,points etc. Luckily im 25 in a few months so will cancel current policy and go with someone else on my birthday.
Was really hard to get a quote due to my age.

Love it chap.
Bugeyes with the Prodrive headlights rule (IMHO and I'm biased...)

Yeah 25 myself altho started on the full no claims after sitting on my parents insurance later so only 4 year NCB, no convictions or points or accidents.

the Sti PPP was 1070, standard Sti was only 900 !

Will have to do a little more research, cheers fella
