112. When having an STI is something to be happy about and doesn't mean a trip to the local clinic

58. when the police pull you over, only to tell you how much they love your car (believe me i was suprised too when it happened)

True! Last lawman I spoke to said they are normally looking for cheap cars that ******* drive and pulling a Scoobie is something to make their day a bit different...

You know you drive a subaru when a bunch of lads pull up at the lights in there kitted out corsa or saxo, they realise your a girl, but have a go on green and suddenly turn off the road as your looking through your rear view laughing to your self (why do they bother) they must feel ashamed

122. When members of the dark side are genuinely suprised to find that all Scooby owners aren't "chavs".
123. You start looking for exotica to have a "play", and completely ignore the frustrated driver of a 318i weaving in your rear view....
124. When you realise that fitting coilovers has made the ride too hard.
125. When certain airfilters can damage something called a "MAF".

I thought I recognised your car. The G/F and I drive past your house most days on the way to work, usually in the second car - a p reg clio (I know, I know, but it's cheap). I have never seen you car on the road around Swindon though. I have only ever seen it on your drive. I will keep a look out.

If you see a black 53 reg STi it's me!

Nice spec btw.

Cool.

I always give fellow scooby drivers a flash, except the girl in the silver WRX with the number plate VVW or something similer. Miserable cow.

There's another silver wrx that I see quite often in Swindon too.

See you about.

When your 5yr old little girl suddenly shouts subaru when she hears the faintest burble somewhere in the distance, she's more obsessed than I am !
