Nice looking motor mate.
I had a Moonstone D-Plate B4 my Scoob.

Good luck with the sale, at that price you shouldn't have a problem.

P.S Beware of the Traders that skulk around this BBS, they won't do you any favours.

thanks for the replies.

car door was open obviously when the drivers side photo taken.

not really interested in selling to traders.
although at this price they could buy and retail it for more.
no hurry to sell, its just sitting quietly in the garage.

wheelright - thanks - keep the insults coming


This is Trade price.
I am only trying to sell before tucking it up for winter again.
(hence the condition it is in)
how many scoobies will be this quality in 16 years ?
The price is as stated.
Dealers are selling for £9-10k in this condition

I bet it's got Piston Slap when cold, those ol' Cosworth lumps (not 4x4 with offset gudgeons) are rather prone to that (much like an MY98 Scooby really)

I used to like this b.board.
You could always get a much higher quality of insult.

but lately the Scooby drivers have obviously realised
that cossies are so much better and more sought after,
hence they seem to be keeping quiet.

at least there are a few decent jokes on here
eg Subaru Impreza Turbos, Legacy Turbos - need I go on

Baiting Impreza drivers in an obvious attempt to keep your post at the top will never work


D'oh!

"Baiting Impreza drivers in an obvious attempt to keep your post at the top will never work"

would I try such a thing - especially to the previously known
'Reliant impreza owners club'
3 wheels on my wagon and all that.

what Scooby drivers obviously havent sussed out yet is that if they
wind the elastic band up a bit more, they could maybe catch a Ford Ka

You've got a cheek trying to sell this on here. No way I'm going to help you by putting it back to the top. Only thing fords are good for is crossing rivers So once again no I'm not going to move your post back up.

Am I??

Errrrr

Damn!

thanks guys - no more attempt to sell on here

wasn't expecting to anyway.
and Imprezas are good, P1, 22b are awesome -

Bren - I know you know cosworth values, this car would be worth 6-7K+ as spares, hence a spares trader has offered me £6.5K.
(Now £7K)

rest my case
