Off to Canada...

Nearly everything is in here to start with.
If it's about your car, or Subaru's in general, put it in "Subaru Chat".

Many fond memories and it was great to meet some of the Melbourne crew.

Life has now taken a different turn and we are off to Canada for a few years to see how it goes.

On the verge of taking the JDM 2.0GT spec.B ( now with Ohlins R&T :wink: ) but not entirely sure of how the Canadian import regs go - so we may get it imported later...


Bon Voyage. Get ready for the harsh winter season of Canada.

We bought our first ever brand new car here... A Subaru Crosstrek 'Outdoor' (Canada only edition :wink: )

First year for the 2.5 engine in the Crosstrek/XV model. Lovely car perfectly suited for the environment we currently live and travel in.

Thanks Ben :D They had my winter tyres on in the UK for the Leggy - but the Crosstrek wears 215/60/17s so the 225/50/17 I had on the wheels were no use.

Nova Scotia... because Mrs Graphite fopund a job she really wanted to do here - and had been loooking to escape all the junk that had accumulated in her previous 22 years at the same job :lol:
I enjoyed my work doing the automotive test engineer stuff - but the wages started poor and stayed low - and the hours - shift work and night shift and stuff were just starting to wear me down - so I was happy to say goodbye to it and try something new 8)
