What that on your garage floor?

What that on your garage floor?

The actual flooring ? It's carpet tiles. I did paint it (properly) originally but the paint lifted at the 4 wheels, then when it snowed or anything the run off the car flooded the place. Got a job lot if tiles on gumtree and that was that.

Saving up for the Swisstrax flooring next!

If you can keep them good they look fantastic!

I've been toying with the idea of leaving the car into somewhere for a good detail. I do have the stuff to do it myself, just not the energy ! My first choice was Mark at Polished and Waxed but I was holding off till, well I'm not sure what but I wasnt for getting it done any time soon.

As it happens he said on Facebook that he had a cancellation so I went for it.

He said paintwork wise it's one of the best imprezas he's had in, and even underneath (he was under there doing the exhaust ) I'm pretty happy as that's both my mechanic and now him that's give it a thumbs up. The only issue he had was the bonnet had been buffed alot before and the paint was too thin to touch so it's going on Monday for paint. It's a shame as it's hardly a chip on it but I'd rather it sorted now.

He did a brilliant job and couldn't do enough for me. Highly recommend him.

Can’t beat a mint condition blue blob

To be fair it sounds like a keeper for you though and they are only going one way prise wise.

Yeah the only thing would change things is if a GTR popped up for sale locally but unfortunately their prices are also going the same way so that's put a stop to that.

As awesome as GTR is I’d take Impreza all day any day

It's always been a dream car (GTR, Supra, TVR in that order). Though something I never thought of is I'm not a fan of autos but for an r35 GTR I'll make an exception

I agree with your bucket list,, having had tvr,, had a mates tuned r35gtr for cpl weeks
I’d still go for Impreza to have parked in garage
In saying that I am thinning my collection so I can do bucket list lol I’m sure some of what I’m letting go ppl wouldn’t sell
We all have our wants of stuff to have at a point

If I'm honest, a GTR would be wasted on me. Though that could be said about most of the cars I've owned recently.

Looks absolutely mint. Hard to beat an impreza these days for something with character. Cant wait to get mine back out.

That's exactly it, character. There's just something about them.

I loved mine. Even though it was only a WRX, it still made you smile when you drove it. Neighbours probably didn't appreciate the exhaust on it though

 

[cormac81]

Looks amazing, had mine out yesterday for the first time in weeks and the burble just puts a smile on your face.

Got the car washed after getting it back from the painters. Bonnet seems a good job, just needs dropped off to the detailer to give it a coating same as the rest of the car.

 

[dh1079]

Looks great ,, good match
