cheers mate. Plan to change the oil myself this weekend.
No doubt many people will laugh about me being pumelled by eggs. I will. Eventually! you wouldnt believe the damage they do when they impact paint
The young idiot who did it laughed. until i spun a u turn and he realised his mums falcon wagon wasnt gonna cut it as a get away car.
BTW Perth coppers were on him (and myself) quicksmart..top work for once...and when they saw egg on my seatbelt....and saw it had hit me...done him for assault. brilliant.

Classic, did you chase them all the way home, or did the cops enter the chase?
If you've only just picked up the car and the brakes are pulsating they should fix it for you.

Well done mate. Cheeky pricks weren't getting away from the GT.

hey just caught onto the thread. maybe the cops should look into subys again (TOG in Shepparton had a WRX persuit car going back 7 years or so)

pricks for throwing eggs at cars though, they are a bitch to clean off to (know from XP someone egged the back of one of my cars when I was at a party so no chance of knowing who it was)

Good job on catching up with them though justice is served

bleh...maybe the pursuit of these idiots is the reason my clutch is now slipping...
after having the car a less than a week, driving it sanely (apart from the night in question) and buying it as a "subaru assured" vehicle still under ncw, Im now finding that the clutch problem and the pulsing front brakes have annoyed me a little. The brakes were mentioned when i test drove it- the excuse being the discs were slightly corroded from the car sitting in the yard, and that it would go away. It has got worse. especially coming down the hills from roleystone every morning.
Watch me scream when they attempt to say it wont be covered under warranty.

Welcome bud, nice work

I’d love to live out in Roleystone! Peace and quiet. Not to mention all those winding roads! Lots of fun to be had. Different breed out there though… they don’t take kindly to strangers! Haha

Know what you mean though, the rental situation is fecked up! Even worse if you want to by. Bloody boom!

I did the margaret river region long weekend just gone. And spent half an hour driving around Bunbury on empty looking for BP Ultimate at 11 at night on the way down. Good roads, good scenery, good wine! perfect! Shuddering brakes- took the edge off it:Dntknw:

oh absolutely. They definately need machining.
Subaru aggreed when I booked it in for next week, although he commented it would be chargeable and asked me when the pads were last changed (if they ever have been). He looked the car up but didnt seem aware I have only taken delivery from it from them a week ago. I will be interested to see what he says when he calls me after I've dropped it in. If they have sold me a Subaru Assured vehicle with bugger all pads left and warped rotors, not to mention a clutch thats slipping after i have done less than 1000km, they are going to cop it.
Fair call if I had been on a race track or something but I havent.
