I don't know about them being worth the premium it will all depend on how much you want to own a SS. Obviously there was only 50 made so you may have to wait for one to come up for sale, although recently there were 2 on autotrader. I believe the cup chassis is standard on the SS. When I started...

I've recently bought 36/50

I recently bought a Silverstone GP and hoping to have it on the road next week. I was going to order a green panel filter for it but decided to check if it already had a performance filter. It has "REVO" on it. I've had a search but can't find anything about these so wondered if anyone on here...

Yeah I know what you mean about missing the grunt just from the couple of times I've driven it but I need to cut costs down so it's something I'll get used to. I'm looking forward to getting it on the road now and chucking it around some B roads.

Cheers, here's hoping it gives me some fun and trouble free motoring. I drove it back on the 2.5 hour journey then it's been parked up since. I'm looking forward to getting it on the road now!

A quick update... I bought a Silverstone GP a couple of weeks ago. It's not on the road yet as I'm waiting until I sell my other car.

Wow as you say that is quite a list! The only real common problems I thought were the ball joints, which a lot seem to have had done under warranty. I will have to keep this in mind when I'm looking. The reason I didn't want to go older than the scoob was I wanted something that should be...

What kind of trouble have you had with it then? Yeah cambelt is something I'm going to have to budget for as most I've seen haven't had it done and they're coming to the age where they need it. Looking around £500 for it doing if I'm right? I may end up going for a cup version but ideally would...

Everything I read seems to be pointing to the same things with regards to missing the power and the difference in road noise but it will hopefully be worth it for the fun factor. Out of the 3 I saw last weekend, 2 of them were the actual cup model with the bench seat. The other one was a FF...

Ah that is a bit worrying lol. I've always said I'd never have a French car after the trouble my dad had years ago with a Laguna and the trouble my mate had with his 106. But I've read that Renault reliability now isn't a problem and maybe you were unlucky. To be fair all I ever heard about VW...

That was my thoughts exactly when I saw that most are from traders. I definitely do like the idea of exclusivity which is one of the things that drew me to a DC5 previously. Until I started looking at them I can't really say I would've noticed them on the road. But since I have I've seen a...

Thanks for the reply. From everything I've read I don't think I'll regret the decision. I'm always changing my mind when it comes to cars but I'm pretty much set on one after all I've read and the test drives. So now it's just a case of waiting for the right one to come up for sale. One thing I...

Thanks for the replies. I went out today and looked at 3, drove 2 of them. Both of the ones I drove were the cup versions. First impressions were that I was quite underwhelmed by the power but I couldn't help comparing it to what I'm used to. When I put that aside, I realise they are quite...

Hi all, a bit of a background to my situation. I currently own a Subaru Impreza STI 2005 and have done for 3 years. It's been an awesome car to own but my circumstances have now changed and I'm soon to be the owner of my first home. However much I'd like to keep it, unfortunately the car will...

It all depends on the car mate really.

Hi mate yeah I'd be interested when/if it goes up with more details etc. Is it a cup chassis?

Wow that surprises me that they're more fun than the golf, although I haven't really read a bad review so I'm definitely leaning towards one.

Hi all, I currently own a 2005 Subaru Impreza STI which has been an awesome car for 3 years. My circumstances have now changed and I'm soon to be the owner of my first home so I need to downsize. I want something cheaper to maintain and most importantly does decent MPG but is still fun to drive...
