that car seems to have allot for the price which is normally a dead give away to a dodgy motor, it has the correct recipe for a quick reliable car but something doesnt add up.
if your mates have evos and imprezas does this not tell you how good they are sometimes being different can put a big dent in your wallet

Nothing wrong with the SR20DET engine at all!!!
Poor modifications are usually the downfall of most turbo cars! How many times have people said it about the Subaru EJ20 engines? Heavy detonation will kill any piston!

i drive as astra gsi turbo now and pay £693 fc a year with 9 points
my licence will come back clean with a ban for totting up, and the insurance on the same car will cost 640 odd. whats so hard to comprehend about that?
5k for insurance, i dont think so,

yeah,. i know, it just the same as most people really, want something a bit different,
if the cossie fund was bigger id go for that,
i have looked at evo's also, but the ones around here are 4's or 6's so it'd have to be a 5 so its at least a small bit different

oi, wanker... 
What the hell is your problem? What have I said that has offended you so much?
I'm sorry if I dont know what you drive, or how much you pay for insurance!
All I originaly said was 'enjoy paying the insurance' as one would asume than a young lad would be getting arse raped for a 'pulsar' and driving ban.
I then asked some pretty resonable questions... was the quote on an import or UK.
So... wind your neck in and dry your little eyes.

Funny story to tell. Years ago a friend of Dad's bought a Sunny GTi-R. It was stolen and a few days later the police rung to say they have found it and it's sitting at the station ready for him to come and see it. He turns up, they take him to the car and bugger a duck it's been nicked again As said above, dodgy gearbox's, clutch is weak and brakes shoddy. The latter two are easy enough to upgrade, gearbox is slightly more expensive.

I'm not being an arse about your insurance.... You seem very sensative about it though. 
It is a common thing for Ins companies and drivers to falsley/wrongly quote a car... import/non import. I'm was only trying to help.

yup... a lot of companies only have some of the models of imports too..
Impreza's - They have STi's etc, type RA but not Type R... cocks.
Its the type of thing you can imagine them coming back saying 'oh but its an import' when you claim.
