Title: Traded in my I30CW
Post by: jupitersj on May 14, 2015, 03:32:03

Hi all,

I know my participation has been really nonexistent the past year  :blubber:

I traded in my 2011 I30CW in April, I miss Romy  :'(

Subaru service costs must be cheaper over there?

Hope you enjoy the new car  :D

Yes Dazzler  :D I wanted a wagon but Subaru discontinued the hatch in 2015 for WRXs.

Nowhere near as cheap as the i30CW services  :sweating:

...but it does 0-60mph in 4.8 seconds  :crazy2:

That's handy.....

Until you get caught behind a truck and I end up behind you anyway  :whistler:

Would be a lot of fun to drive  :cool: But I'm already supporting a wife and two kids, the less I spend on cars the better  :(

Cool, you'll need the 4wd action of the Subaru to access the road there...Don't the council's do any road works over there? the road looks like swiss cheese :neutral:

I'm not married and have no kids, but I did work 80 hour weeks for 2 years to afford this car  :snigger:

I live on a deadend; we've tried petitioning the borough with no success over 20 years. Spend money on citizens? Welcome to America!

Nice car Jupitersj, your road surface looks Fine to me Craig has not been to Australia yet LOL.

Also i'm sure if Beerman saw what you guys this is high $ for a service he would get a shock. everyone knows they can rip us Aussies off.
i remember taking my friends car for a service in USA & seeing the prices of cars there, we pay heaps more here.

 :whsaid: when i come over i get quite a workout behind the wheel. Not just potholes though, there's the drains that are often 2 inches below the road surface .....

It's like every F1 chicane put end to end  :crazy1:
