latest chav mobile, ive already lost track of how many cars ive owned at this point

Over the last few years I've been building my dream car, a 2013 widebody Subaru BRZ (I bought it completely stock) - only got temporary rattle can paint on at the moment as I'm saving for a proper paint job, and then my daily is a Skoda Octavia estate however won't bother with a photo of that as it's dirty and boring

Bought myself a little summer fun to go alongside the Range… was looking at something a bit higher end I’d want to keep “forever” but with house renovations etc thought I’d pick this up for £5k and save up for another year or two whilst enjoying it - 2.7 non-S but has the S exhaust, and seems plenty fast enough for me compared to my Superb or Range

Those are so fun to drive! Jealous of you!

What you done to that? I’ve always wanted to try a BRZ/GT86, I love a boxer engine as you can tell

So far, custom exahust, coilovers, bodykit, wheels, lights, did have a spoiler but it was from AliExpress... and a load of interior bits (currently doing a starlight kit). Nice sense of achievement knowing I did it all myself too

If you're after power, then 100% look for a different platform unless you're going to dump a load of money for an engine swap (the boxer is a chocolate teapot so bad for turbo lol - only safe til about 300bhp), but in terms of driving experience they're absolutely insane and handle like a you'd expect a Ferrari to! Would definitely recommend for modifying, but if being left standard they get boring very quick
