Newbie to PH, my short car history

[JontyB4]

Hi all,

A long time lurker to PH finally joining now that I'm in something more PH than my previous cars

My first car was a trusty Ford Fiesta Ghia 1.4, not bad and served it's purpose well.

After a couple of years rolling around in that I moved to a Ford Focus 2.0 ESP which I loved. Great handling, looked decent and didn't sound too bad for a 4 pot




I've recent delved into the world of Japanese Imports and picked myself up a Subaru Legacy B4 RSK, the noise alone sold me on this one , a couple of pics from before picking it up.



More pics to follow when I pick it up on 1st June, wish it would hurry up already!

Thanks for looking.

Jon

Those 3dr 2.0 Ford Focus'in black are about as nice an all round package as you'll ever get in a 'cooking' car. Fantastic handling, peppy engine that loved to be thrashed and it still looks smart today - 12 or so years after launch. Brilliant.

Those RSK's are a very nice car, a car for all occasions good choice

How much are you paying for the RSK, if you don't mind me asking? Toying with the idea of getting one of these nexts but the weak pound was putting me off importing one direct.

Tidy Focus - looks rather swell.

Nice Legacy too, a tad more bhp can't be a bad thing

Paying 4295 for the Legacy, part-exing my Focus brings it down to £3000, although I'm having a Cat 1 alarm fitted and the car undersealed for an extra £280 plus 12 months tax put on it, so that's £3480 in total. I'm going to get the cambelt changed very soon as well I think, for peace of mind.

Had the Legacy a couple of days now, fantastic car and absolutely flies! Makes a lovely noise as well

Here's some pics

Nice Legacy

Could get lost up that pipe.

Nice car though, I think I'd rather one of these over an Impreza these days.
