New From Sheffield Advice Please :)

Spesh, all we guys are saying is, it might just be worth getting an N/A for now, just until you get experienced. I've been driving mine for about 2 years now, and only now am I thinking about getting a turbo. It pays off, especially when it makes insurance more affordable.

EDIT: Didn't see that you had a year and a half's no claims. Still can be worth driving an N/A, plus you could swap out the 4EFE for a 4EFTE, for ultimate sleeperness.

well u try paying 3 grand insurance mate plus the fuel, then the attention u get from the police when driving a scooby. dont get lippy! im telling the guy that he can get whatever car he wants, just beause u said u couldnt handle a fast car due to inexperiene doesnt mean he cant!

EDIT- and i dont think moving to a glanza from an imprezza is a stepdown. i prefer the glanza lots more fun, cheaper to run and not as common as muck!

thanks people for all the advice

i dont think a glanza is a step down from a scooby either nt when u compare a scooby to been bout 220 bhp and then some glanzas been 240 bhp and been light as fook
