    Something like that I had in mind (excuse the link please)

    Maybe I am vauxhall blinkered parts at cost price and 20% off servicing sways me tho

    And no way is a cav 'redtop' going to beat a scooby doo

    Exactly this, a few of my mates have had impreza's, very fast capable cars, I wouldn't have though a wrx would be slower than a turbo 2000 though which are the ones I've had most experience in/with, and I know for a fact that an xe cav would get left by a turbo 2000 halfway through first gear!

    Anyone who thinks otherwise is going to lose when it comes to putting money on a quarter mile time

    And like I say, I know a turbo 2000 will kill a cav, and indeed most novas, so with the wrx being the better faster model, where should we be putting our money then children?
