Cool Just had PPP fitted

Finally saved up my pocket money and had a PPP fitted. Dropped the car off at the dealers for it's 1 year service, and PPP install, at 8:15 this morning, had the car back by 12:30. Since then been stuck behind every coffin dodging Perodua driver in Guernsey! Even then, I've noticed that the car feels more eager, pulls better from lower revs, and sounds a bit more burbly. I look forward to getting to know my enhanced Scooby.

Yes I know there are better value options, but warranty and geographical location made the PPP an obvious choice for me.

Spot the local I've always had great service from Le Mont Saint, shame Subaru can't deliver the goods any more, particularly in terms of quantity. They're making up with lack of Scooby sales by shifting loads of Fiats by the amount of the new 500's I've seen.

Off to France in a couple of weeks, looking forward to scaring the locals.

Got a bit worried this evening, there was a funny clunking noise from the back end

Anyone want to by a WRX Sport back box and CAT centre section, I've got one in my boot!

Well, just got back from France. The difference between my old Bugeye WRX and the PPP'd '07 WRX is very noticeable. Acceleration, engine flexibility, in-gear acceleration were so much better, passing lorries etc is so much easier, and the traditional Route National on ramp Grand Prix is much more fun!

And to top it all, A van full of Gendarmes flashed their headlights and waved at me, then looked a bit sheepish when they realised I WASN'T one of their new Gendarmarie Scoobys
