After 5 years of dreaming and 10 months of waiting I took delivery of my Series II Stagea today.

This may seem like a long time, but when your after something specific it's well worth it.

Every option under the sun roofs and all [pun intended]. (one thing I didn't get was side airbags but I reckon the wait may have been forever for that)

Just to name a few

Look forward to seeing you on the road &

Thanks for your time

That towel rail is fantastic! Enjoy, I know you will!

As you all know by now I really hated my Forester, but, in the spare wheel well (full size) there was a poly wash basin. You could take it out and do the dishes etc.

Silly buggers didn't fit a towel rail though. If it had one I might have liked the LEMON.

Well done! Never even seen one with a towel rail before! You've been waiting even longer than me... I've been looking for about 3 years, I paid a service fee to my chosen importer a couple of months ago and I'm struggling to find a series 2 in silver with leather... I can appreciate how you could spend 5 years (or 10) looking for one with all the right options, that's for sure. Awesome looking example you have there. Got any pics of the interior? I guess it is a prime ed with leather?

Yep Prime Edition with all the fruit.

Only got to drive it once from the importer to my mechanic for a major service (precautionary)

so I'm chaffing at the bit to get my filthy hands back on it.

The back has that "never sat in feeling"

That looks niiiice. I reckon that silver with leather has gotta be the rarest damn combo. I think I'm gonna settle for pearl white/leather. But silver looks best :D

nah dude pearl white in the right sunshine looks friken fantastic

just you wait......

wish I had leather interior tho

Well spotted, Shan! 100 points

Finally got it back from my mechanic yesterday and he absolutley loved it.

I think he kept it a few extra days so he could drive it around......

Noticed these little gems whilst driving at night this evening

Can't really see the point of them but they light up white when the doors open

Then if your headlights are on and your driving, they glow green(!?)

Kinda makes you feel like you're in an aeroplane :laughing-smiley-014:

The dude who bought this car really optioned it to the max...

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
