OH YES !!!!

How cool is that, a Wagon Run

Loads of posts to catch up, the Squadron can de-brief me later on whats been happening at squadron headquarters.

Must seriously get down to some wagon searching since we sold ours, been too full on at work at moment.

Looks like I am going to miss out on some good wagoneering what with the Wagon Tunnel run and the Blackpool big one. When I am back in wagon ownership we must organise the 'Wagon Big One'

I am torn between just rushing out and finding the first wagon i see advertised on here or on pistonheads so can back in it agan, or the more considered approach of waiting for the right one then pouncing.

I do prefer the second option, waiting for a suitable donor for the next Smiles Project ... after seeing the thread for the 22b wagon, I have a vison of a 'Wagon Type-WA' or how about a 'Spec-W'

So do i rush out and buy one or find a donor for a project to do over the winter ....Anyone ever done a nitrous wagon

Loads of pics to put up from NBO Wagon Show that never got round to, will get them sorted and put up

...Keep them wagons rolling

YEAR OF THE WAGON

 

If we dont have one by then, can I be a co-pilot for someone

 

My thoughts exactly, it did become a sightseeing tour of london, although the sightseeing turned out to be could you actually spot an impreza again after you seperated at the lights. where did 80+ scoobies go in central london

Up for the wagon run if can be a co-pilot for someone

 

I might let you co-pilot

 

Yep, I have joined the club for scoobless owners...we have special counsilling meets to help us come to terms with our loss and how we can return to the noraml car owner community. need extra help as we are now driving a fiat .. oh the shame

 

 

Then again i might not

 

Like that now is it

 

I think the Squadron may be wanting me to hand in my wings and joining the ground crew

Anyone need a navigator

 

with my sense of direction youa re more than welcome

(when its fixed that is )

 

Cheers M8

What have you done to it

 

new clutch (400bhp rated exedy ), then a week later stripped second gear

 

Gosh !!!

Been away for a week, and no posts on this thread in that time.

Glad Smiles is about - no requirement to hand in wings.........yet !!!

So......if 2006 is Year of the Wagon (no tee shirts yet) what will 2007 be?

Note that moves are afoot to have an SBO next year. There will of course need to be a Wagon Corner or similar arrangement. I am hoping to organise a separate Wagon Squadron presence utilising a "Diamond Nine" or some such formation (very limited number of cars on this display...obviously) - uniforms - maybe even a simulator for non-Wagon owners (come and lie in the boot, or load up a big box...chest of drawers etc) - field HQ - ooooh...lots of ideas................

 

Whatto old chap... been out on the regular 'Wagon Search and Buy' Sortie all week

The SBO sounds a good one, as it happens I have the Wagons Paw in the Sallons door allready ...as Andy the organiser is the Hants regional Organiser and we happen to live about 10 minutes away from each other and get the same train n the mornings.... so there will be no favouriteism I promise

He's allready asked me to promote the wagon stand(s) and get some interest on the wagon threads

Every Year is year of the wagon

..Now that I am getting more free time, sorted out our move and changed roles work, I can get stuck in and pick up where I left off, T-shirt & sticker production can be resumed and working on organising wagon events.
We must organise the wagon rolling road day and a day at the Pod for some strip action ... Krud, will the Scoobbabes be attending

...Oh forgot, I dont have a wagon at the moment.... does someone need a co-pilot or navigator until we our back in the cockpit

...Love the idea of the wagon squadron formation and the simulator , we have all winter to formulate some plans in the Wagon Top Secret Bunker and for me to find a suitable addition to the squadron.

Krud, when is the next squadron sortie planned for maybe we could drop by squadron field hq in the temporary mode of transport

....Smiler out

 

alright lads new to the site here is pics of my version 1 sti

Nice wagon mate! im looking to buy a wagon in the next month or so but could someone tell what sort of power there are it be about a 97/98 on a p or r- reg. i thought they where 214 bhp is this correct?

 

I've got a 99 wagon and love it to bits had a 4 door before but just couldn't get my stuff in the wee boot

 

Nice STI

Welcome to the Wagon Community

Steve

 

thanks lads still farely standard but not for long

 

depends what your goin for sti or wrx wrx as far as i know is 215 bhp and sti is 280 bhp now could be wrong

 

Go for STi. Well better spec-ed.

 

as part of my spreading the word of the wagon i have ventured through singapore reeking havok and mayhem


Lordy has now moved onto the capital city of cebu in the phillpines

he has made 4 attemps at entering his dump valve into the necessarys and has collected lots of contacts

subarus wagons are non existant but that does not stop the quest

his cruising machines include toyato corrolla with 4 inch exhaust suzuki samurari and a honda 125 bike along with jeepneys


most expensive night was 2 hubo hubo clubs to 4 am for 5 people which came to a wopping 23 quid D:

bargain was a side street dodgy club for 3.50 !!

life is so good over hear although the misses has discoverd some strange messages on my fone so im lying low in a cyber cafe drinking yet more san migel at 5 pm


i will continue looking for a wagon when i sober up on 23p san migel

Singapore Big One

We should clean up with the trophies at that one toooo

....Are the saloons still bitter about NBO ... or have they let it go yet

The trophies are well polished and gleaming at Wagon HQ

 

Steve

I posted a response to the "concerns" explaining our philosophy and how we endeavoured to meet the judging criteria (I think on the NBO thread itself) and that seemed to satisfy everyone, once i explained about the Squadron folder and themes for the day.

There are no hard feelings anywhere to my knowledge so the issue is well and truly put to bed.

Thanks for the replys so the sti is the one to get then what year did they bring them out? i only have 4k to spend. thanks

 

Thats good to hear, splendid Tact old fellow

 

Get this months edition (October) of Japanese Performance Magazinr, it has a 32 page scooby supplement with everything you needed to know abou the sti models, and it gets quite tecchie too

But in a nutshell...

the STI wagon is only available as jap import and the v7 was the last version made, there was not a Wagon version of the Type UK wic is criminal

'94 - first STI 1 wagon 250bhp
'95 - STI II wagon 270bp - 555 limited edition wagon released
'96 - STI III Wagon 280 - facelift
'97 - STI IV
'98 - STI V - facelift
'99 - STI VI
'2000 -STI V7 - Bugeye was last STI Wagon.

STI 5 wagon will go for about 7-8k
STI 7 for nearer 10k

so on your budget you are looking at a VI/II or III for that budget, but you get what you pay for, you may see a 4 or 5 but they will probably be dogs at that price, STI Wagons are rarer than the proverbial Rocking Horse **** so hole ther value and will go for whatever you are prepared to pay, find a unmodifed one if you can.

Hope that helps

 

Thanks mate! Top man, have to go and buy that tomorrow.
