Howdy all, I've been floating around these forums for a few years now, and have met a number of you at various cruises and motorvation etc... but never actually introduced myself, so to speak, on here.
Anyway, the MY99 hatch is getting on a little, and 9yrs and 150000km is starting to take its toll on the old girl. So i'm retiring her to the shed, with the intention of 207'ing her, and generally working on her as a project. I've spent way too much time and money on it to even consider selling, besides, I'm far to attached to depart with her.

Anyway, BS aside, below is a few pics of what i picked up today as a replacement. It's comfortable (leather int.), auto (coz traffic into the city sucks), relatively powerful (H6 3L)... and best of all, a subaru.

the old girl:




and now for something completely different...

Yeah. Yesterday, and the Wednesday night before that, and the Saturday before that too.
Finally took it for a drive during lunch break today, and was very impressed. (No pun intended Kymbo).
Did the usually small talk, and bargaining, and walked away very happy.

yeh, 7 sounds about right... and the 2 bikes.

Dont hold your breath for the transplant, it depends what work has is store for me, in regards to what part of the country I end up in, and for how long. No doubt you'll see the rex on the road in its current guise before I take it off the road completely.
