my first scooby after years of wanting one arrives tomorrow. I've ordered a MY05 WRX PPP saloon in red and it's been on order since October 2004 but couldn't be delivered until the 3yr lease ran out on my current car, an audi a4.

Looks like tonight is going to be another sleepless night and tomorrow is just going to drag on until it arrives...I can't wait

 

I know what your going thru........it's worth the wait

 

Mate get it PPP`d asap.

 

reread the post matey..its already ppp'd @P

 

It wont be when its delivered. Will have to have it done after the 1,000K service

 

Supplier preference

 

Don't wait til 1000 miles - it's much easier to drive whilst keeping it below 4000rpm with the PPP than without.

I drove my 05STI for 3 days without PPP before it got installed - wow what a difference!!!
Without it the car felt vey sluggish,but with.....OMG.....now thats how it's supposed to be.
Loads more torque low down.

You know it makes sense!!!

 

it has arrived...she looks bloody lovely and sounds fantasic

already PPP'd because the dealer had loads of time before delivery date to install

can't wait until lunchtime to go and get some optimax, might have to drive a few miles to find a shell station though

 

Pop in mate

Ring first tho so I`m free

 

Hiya,

Enjoy it mate; they're great cars. Do make sure you treat it gently and run it in properly over at least the first 1000 miles though. I'm afraid they'll be no shortage of idiots wanting to bait you, but you must resist You'll notice that the car will just keep on feeling quicker over the first 5000 miles or so!

The smiles will keep coming....alas so do the petrol/service/insurance bills etc....they're worth it though!!

Best wishes

 

See you at the shell station at 1.oopm just down from spittals.It looks like the SS1 needs a bit more snow before tonight, i have got the Lambo and sledge on amber.
Where is the photo of the car?

 

went down to letchworth to get some optimax, and drove as the book says under 4,000rpm except in an emergency - I had a few emergencies

the car now looks used and dirty with that ****e on the road and I don't mean audi's

sod the photo maybe I will pop over later on my way home via the country lanes without touchig the A1 or A14.

 

I will expect to see you later and as you are an emergency, drive accordingly.

 

Honestly mate, keep those emergencies to a minimum. Don't forget, you're on thin "running in oil" at the moment (replaced by the regular stuff at the 1000 mile service). If you thrash the engine now, you'll pay for it later! It's hard with these cars not to gibve it some stick, I know!

Best.

 

that PPP exhaust note is better than sex

 

Enjoy had mine just over a year now many smiles per mile

 

Simon just take it easy for about 300 miles then pick up the pace a bit.
You wont have any engine issues within the 3 Year period your worried about
And the car will be a lot faster.
I dont condone this type of behaviour tho you understand
4th Scoob and never done under 4000 rpm for a 1000 miles in any of them.
The only car I have had that was not bought new blew up at 6000 miles !!!"
More of using the wrong fuel by previous owner and dealership always beats the running in by the book theory!!
Pop round you muppet!!

 

I second that
I was told by the dealer not to ***** foot round in my 04 PPP all the time as the maf may get the wrong idea about how you drive just dont thrash it above 4000 rpm for any length of time.

Still 4000 rpm in 5th is well in to 3 figure (so i', told )

 

Sad.

 

done 280 miles so far, running it in just like my karting engines and they were also quick did have to go to 7000rpm for smurfitt last night when leaving BMW

went to nottingham today by country roads there and back, bloody brilliant drive and tomorrow off to wolvehampton so that will be another 200+ miles. already booked into garage for week on monday to have this olive oil removed

will see you saturday morning, then going with smurfitt to bishops stortford to see about audio, mobile phone kit and radar detector

 

Let me know what time your poppin in on Sat aas its a busy day for me.#Have a listen to my audio then start savin when you get to Gary`s audio sex haven.

 

unfortunately we don't all have smurfitt's money handed to us do we? he likes spending other peoples

 

Would that be audiofile in stortford by the rugby ground? if so they are very good indeed.
gary has done my last 3 cars
