Hi all,

As stated in a previous thread, I'm in the process of hunting down a new toy. Been to view and test drive a few this week and if anything it's made my decision harder.

Option 1 is a Blob STi.
Option 2 is a Hawk WRX.
Option 3 (wildcard option) is a 330 MSport.

The STi is what I was looking for originally and is probably the one I'm leaning toward most. Only went to view the Hawk due to it being a bit cheaper and very low mileage but it really surprised me how nice it was in the flesh, not been a massive fan of the hawk up til now but it looked and felt like quite an upgrade on my bugeye WRX and is really making me think. I am concerned about all the fuss mentioned regarding the 2.5, and of course the tax is a killer. I even liked the leather interior though which is unusual for me! The 330 is my attempt to grow up an be a bit more sensible. They are nice motors but i just dont think my hearts in it, although the fuel consumption is a definite plus in comparison.

Was hoping to get some thoughts from others to aid my decision. Conscious that I need to decide quick or I risk losing out on all of them!

Thanks in advance!
