Basically I still want a small car that when you put your foot down, gives you a decent shove in the backside, but I also want the utility of carting around stuff if I need to.The Old Republic was a stupidly run organisation which deserved to be taken over. All Hail Palpatine!

It doesn't have to be noisy either (as standard) although I must admit I did fit a top quality 4-2-1 S/S manifold, decat pipe and performance panel air filter simply for the performance gains they brought.... probably an extra 10bhp all in?
Yes I'll admit I do feel that image burden at my grand old age of 35 and am/was embarrassed to be driving what has sadly become a boy racers car When I was attending job interviews etc, when I would always opt for the Impreza.... lol, but if you can look past that unfortunate image they now have, they really are a worthy descendant and share the same spirit as the iconic 205 GTIs... just more forgiving, better handling... and what a car for such little outlay, insurance and running costs.The emergence of the new 'Rainmaster' - Mad Max at Interlagos 2016!
