Barryboys and Shed of the Week 🤣

https://www.drivelife.co.nz/2022/07/2022-subaru-wrx-gt-ts-wagon-car-review Since there’s now no STi model, Subaru has added “flashes of STI’s brilliance through the tS model sporting STI branding on the steering wheel and instrument cluster and the tS wagon also featuring STI branded front seats and tailpipes.” What a load of bollocks. 🤣

Or the owner who stuck a Viva badge on the boot 😄

The ultimate purse from a sow's ear ? 😄 Never seen one with a Viva badge, they were labelled Firenza ? Droop snoot 2.3 if you must.

More teasing... £6m ...

Post here and make the thread a sticky ?

What car are they going on ? You after all out performance or a daily driver ? Budget or premium ? Former - you can't go past Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 as a road tyre - warning - they don't like cold or rain and $$$$$ PS4S is almost as good and a much more rounded tyre but $$$4 Hankook S1 Evo3 are decent Maxxis VS5 are a real sleeper but restricted in sizes. There's a new Potenza Sport but not driven on them - in the past I've found the RE002/003 rather average, S001/007 meh. The last great Potenzas were the RE070, RE01R, RE050A ? Can you still get Nitto NT05 ?

Cars and Coffee was packed out last Sunday ! Southwards was full to capacity with cars spilling out to the road outside the complex. Afterwards couldn't resist a blast over TG. 😄 A very fast road but lacking in character. Some great views though.

A lot of fixed back seats are quite upright, if you like to lean back get a reclining seat.

Cheers ! There was some supercar trackday yesterday - POrsches. Ferraris, McLarens etc. Drivers only, no pix
