Enjoy. I bet a pound you grin from ear to ear when you hear that engine burble away. Still brings a grin to my face. You will notice that you get alot of attention from admiring people. Kids go mad when they see them.
Best choice of colour in my opinion which is why i went for it.
Coupled with gold wheels (not everybody's fav) and a big rear wing, what more can you want

Don't do ANY mods at all. Not one solitary alteration; none of this
"oh, I'll just change the back box and get a 40 quid panel filter an that'll be all" nonsense. If you do, you'll never stop..........



........having said that, it's a good giggle Enjoy buddy!

You're not gonna sleep tonight and, if you're anything like me, you probably didn't last night either.

Have fun!

I'm not that far behind you age-wise and those couple of nights before I picked up my WRX were well and truly on par with those childhood night-before-christmas memories! I had a real hard job sleeping and an even harder job stopping my head falling off due to the ear-to-ear grin when I climbed into it the next morning and drove it off the forecourt.

Nearly a year on I still can't help a small smile in the morning when I get in the car and the recent PPP job will ensure that smile stays there for some time to come

Hope you enjoy your scooby as much as I enjoy mine

The best things in life are free.
The second best cost, but are worth it.
Have fun.
Just remember, even Scoobs can swallow you and spit you out.

even after 18 months, I still look at my bugeye like it's the first time. a 'friend' has come to stay at the house opposite - a nice WR Blue Blobeye STi - makes washing up a pleasure looking out of the window and seeing the mini-scoob line up.
