It's not just aesthetics that hurt the hatch. It's overpriced and unreliable too!

Nope. Same here
I realy quite like the hatch and have never been much of a fan of older models in terms of looks.

dont think its much suprise to be honest, as Jambo said the cost of them now especially for a very high spec one is immense and you can get very better specced cars for less, think nearly 35-40k for the highest spec models (spec c's and R205s etc)

only someone who really really wants one would have to pay the prices they are going for.

Had 7 in total, The type r at top was the fastest car I've owned and probably the most dangerous. I think they had there time now though . Concentrated too much on making safe road cars rather than dangerous death machines

I'd also like to one day make a replica of mcraes one he won the world championship with in '95. He was always a hero when I was growing up and I also got to sit in the car he won the championship with!

That's the saloon we should have got instead of the Hatch

I'd have had one tbh.

Not a massive fan of scoobys but my fave has always been the 2dr type-r sti. Obviously the 22b is the ultimate one but i wouldnt want to spend that much on one.

If it was a classic shape I wanted then it would have to be the P1 as the 22b is mega bucks lol.

Kyle - there's a guy up my way with that style Subaru in black but its pretty horrid looking lol. Nothing like that one.

I see white a few of them. Obviously not as many as the hatches, but still quite a lot. Obviously a very popular import.
