What about an Impreza STi hatch? A 400 bhp one with a couple of handling tweaks in a stealthy colour would be great

Is an evo X special enough to be a weekend toy? Especially with the s2k as a daily. I have recently had the same dilemma, and decided to go down the motorbike route! Even at 30mph it's twice as exciting as driving the s2k!

MB, not a fan of the hatch sti. Like the older Blob eye sti (mate had one), but always loved the Evo X.
If anything, I do like the new scooby. Sound of a scooby with the looks of the Evo. WIN! (But twice the price)

Doyal, Already there and have a bike. Only a SV650 at the moment but plan to upgrade to a Ninja 636 later on. Agree that a bike is brilliant, but only reall usable in summer.
Evo will be plenty special enough after a few mods to get it up to 400+ bhp

Guess iv just always wanted an Evo X and not going to go dow the euro-box route.

I will keep an eye out for the RS models, but not seen any reference the RS Diff.
Still have a lot of reasearch to do, but getting an import seems to be one of the better options. Especiall if it means £230 tax! Always a win!
No problem mate, Rs's are rare, and a little more expensive but they do hold their value, if I see any for sale I'll give you a shout.
