I’d rather have the t5r 

Looked at the t5 in the same model and they run at the same bhp but higher tax and drink more. I'm guessing you could map them more though if you wanted to

I dont think the modern t5 are the same as the old S60 type they where rapid had ago in one and in a straight line I was stuck to my seat without hearing the engine

I'd love an sti forester but like kanny says road tax and running costs just arnt worth it. 

Al always have a forester for the hunting dog wagon but wont be a furbo

I’m on about the old 90s 850 T5R the old touring car they raced looked cool as feck in the blue and white livery

I always thought the forrester looked too heavy and lumpy, my mate had the old one and it was a guzzler and it wasn’t a turbo either

Only 80kg difference between the forester xt and the Impreza wrx  they are basically the same platform...impreza at the top ,forester at the bottom

Still the Impreza is the legend of the 2 for its achievements on rallying in the 90s then came the evo and did it again, my favourite is the escort cosworth but no way could I afford one

Been in a few scoobys and the most impressive was an early sti type ra it was something else, however the most hp car. I was in was an rx7 single turbo it was 518hp and sounded like a jet but was very crampt inside

[dogmad riley 1,343]

Not been in the 22b but heard they good 

Had ago in a p1 and it was unreal. 

 

The wr1 and rb32 are meant to be good 

 Ot been in an rx7 been in an rx8 was ok but wasnt tuned up. Was a greedy little bugger

I never seen the rs and s motors as proper Audi’s, I see the proper Audi performance car having a fire breathing 5 cylinder turbo charged monster, the Audi that changed the game had that paired with the Quattro system and changed the game in the rally world

audi think it was the quattro 100 coupe estate now that was a monster...

Your right about the Subaru's. They not cost effective in today's world.

That's why I am going for a volvo next family car v40 R design d4. Will do the family for what we need, good Mpg, no road tax and quite nippy with all the bells and whistles and safe

Had a v50 r design 

lovely motors , quickish comfortable  and a decent mpg over long journeys

Yes with the 2.2 turbo?? The s2 was in partnership with Porsche and was a beast, but expensive for parts was the Audi’s, they’re how. The Audi’s are meant to sound

The v50 is a comfy motor, the seats are like leather arm chairs
