Hi all, I have a 96 WRX JDM import which is a great car BUT I may have the opportunity to move to Spain, Would the scoob be OK out there -I am mainly thinking about the heat, I have never seen a scooby out there did they ever get sold/imported there?

I may be better selling the scoob but thought I would seek opinions first...

Thanks

When I was out in Spain two years ago. In Callalea I noticed a blue scooby bugeye version. It was covered in dust as its a very dusty place. But that was the only scooby I could remember seeing out there.

A friend of mines parents moved to Benidorm a few years ago, they took the Scooby with them. There's was a UK turbo though.

Not sure what the petrol is like in Spain.

i have a place in majorca and i have seen plenty classic impreza's driving about, and one newage at the airport and i think that was on a GB reg ?

the fuel out there is good so the scoob should run very well.

Heat will equal loss of power I'd imagine

Thanks for the replies, it is really the heat I was most concerned about!! I have a polar performance chip to fit and that will allow 97RON fuel.

What are the best ways of reducing heat in the engine bay? I have asked Harvey about a FMIC but he said not to bother but also said there are plenty of ways to keep down heat in the engine bay.

Wrap exhaust and turbo??
Fit the horrible looking bonnet lifters (lift the rear of thre bonnet)??

The other problem is the way bumpers are actually used when parking I was considering have the bumpers wrapped with clear vinyl to reduce the effect of aural parkers!!!

Thanks
