Welcome James. Digging the Pogue. I've got that model also and it ain't going anywhere!

Om had a rough start but he's hanging in there. Some folks might say you'd need a thick skin to deal with folks around these parts. Guess that's about right! Get a few drinks in us and no telling what will happen next. Seriously though enjoy DWC. :cheers:

Very cool. I have never been to Trinidad but I can well imagine rallying in Barbados.
Barbados is great, narrow roads, broken tarmac. I'll share some pictures of you all are interested.
Definitely share some pictures.

I love mine and it's not going anywhere either. I got via an fantastic act of kindness by a true gentleman on another forum. He'd owned it from new and offered it free to a good home. I was luckily first to PM and sent it to Spencer to restore. I'd wanted one for a long time and this one is very special.

Awesome Photos!

Mine was an VIII. I loved them both but after the WRX I gave them up... I got more speeding tickets going 5mphs over the limit than I knew what do with. As you can imagine I got profiled big time in them... Probably didn't help that I have bronze look-at-me Volks on one and gold on the STi. :lol:

Been 7 years since I owned either and I haven't been pulled over since. I drive a Tacoma but still have a lead foot.

Thank god you didn't have a body kit or some awful stick on's (you didn't right??) you'd have got tickets in your drive way.

Bronze volks are awesome.

Great photos!

Rallying looks like such a blast, I've only done a bit at a rally school here on the Wet Coast, but it was tremendous fun :)

Also, damn nice watches :cheers;
