Couldn't believe how popular it was. Over 80 phones calls for a dodgem. Should have put the price up. Hope the scoob is as popular when we come to sell that.

P.S. Did have a full tank of fuel included in the £68.00.

A blobeye and a bugeye wave around Leigh in the same day. We obviously have a friendlier class of wavers in this area.
As regards to AndiThompson:- If i had been in the car I would have had to wave to a sport in front of people who know me Only kidding.
Noticed that it was spotless again. Next time you are passing stop off and wash mine if you want. Don't forget about the bonnet vents though

Hello chris,
Seem to be getting more newage drivers around here recently as oppose to us mere classic owners. If you see a dark blue V plate classic with gold stickers all over it wave at you that will probably be me. I sometimes get carried away and wave when I'm in my black primera so be warned of a strange person in a nissan as well.
Live up the road in sunny Tyldesley.
Welcome aboard.

You've shamed me into washing mine today. Jaytc will be upset.

message to chrisstone. Theres a bloke on here who owns a breakers yard in Fleetwood. Worthwhile putting a new thread on to see if he replies. Think he's called Andy. Worth a try. Seems to have loads of scooby bits.

Andy10 and AndiT, washed mine last night, also waxed it so it is now nice and shiny and you can now see the red flecks in the paintwork. Looks tres good if I say so myself.

Chrisstone, the guy Andy10 mentions has loads of stuff, his name is Andy Dooley tel 07788 128845, he is setting up shop for scoobs servicing and selling parts, quite reasonably priced he is based in fleetwood.

Alternatively do a search on here for DRM think they do them. I got mine from SIL Imperial, but mine is an sti v5/6 high level spoiler with brake light, however Im not posh enough to have a newer car so I don't know if that one would fit. It cost I think £129+ vat and was delivered the next day. It only comes in primer though

what colour blue is it that your car is?? its not dark blue by any chance is it, and was for sale of the road with a hill (cant remember the name of it, only use it a few times a day!!)
If its not metallic or anything have a go yourself, other than that there is a guy who has a place behind the car// bike accessory shop on nr the one way in tyldesley (opposite the bride shop) He is supposed to be good (equipe recommended him for my missus car but we havent done anything yet)

I know there is a garage there nr the roundabout, dont know if it incorporates a bodyshop though. Only other place I know that was cheap and good was in warrington nr the train station//go karting place. Cost me just over 600 quid for a full respray and touch up of bodywork (when I say full the interior wasnts stripped or the engine bay wasnt done as it was just the same colour)

changed from a corsa eh, bit of an upgrade that one.

My mate's dad does spraying, he's based in Tyldesley down the side of Exchange and Mart car sales. He's called Grant Rawlinson. AFAIK, he does it on the weekend so you might have to wait a bit, but he's done work twice for us, and we've been pleased with the results. I'll get his son to look in here later.

Wheres exchange and mart is that on the top road that goes into the one way in the centre of tyldesley????? Could do with a price to get my spoiler sprayed correctly. (Currently sprayed vauxhall metalic with silver sparkly bits, but mine is black mica so needs red sparkly bits)

Is it only weekends?

Exchange and Mart is on Manchester Road (I think..) heading out of Tyldesley toward Mosley Common and that (ie, opposite direction of Atherton) on your left hand side, its a car sales place.
