Someone has been busy. You should have kept the 5 turbo. I would give away my girlfriend, left arm and maybe a kidney for a tidy one.

Very busy bearing in mind that I've had some company cars in that time too but to mention them would be disrespectful to the rest of my list :wink:

Hindsight is a wonderful thing re: the 5 turbo and, with it I would also have kept the Impreza which, I bought new and was a special edition, it would still be running strong and looking good but hey, when you get that itch you have to scratch despite what my Doctor tells me :lol:

It's a photo I played about with using the edit/decorate option in photobucket and paint on windows to touch the photo up ;-) Bit sneaky as I blanked out the number plate really rough which takes the eye off the tweaked areas. I then modded rest of photo which was removing door handle, side strips, lettering on boot and renault logo on boot.

Really is dead easy to do, give it a go.

A bundle of fun, can be a handfull in the wet though, and the torque steer can catch you out, but It handles suprisingly well for a bus, I think it's actually too fast for what it is. I wanted the earlier gsi but wife saw the Arden blue one so we had to get it. But had to buy it as i've got 2 little girls and another baby due any time now... In fact i'd better check the wife she's been quiet for far too long..... I'll get some pics and upload them
