Stevie,

Yes - me. I am off this weekend so possibly meet up Friday night if you are there anyway. Any night next week would be fine by me (except Saturday) but probably Thursday is best (at least only one day of work to go suffering the agony of no sleep and a sore head).

Good to meet up with some "familiar" faeces, or should that be faces?!?

Hello Stiks,

What car you driving - did you just get it or just joined Scoobynet?

Hello anyway,

Nobles - had a good look about and got a decent p/ex on the Alfa. Saw some horrors in Drive and dealers down south. Have to say - no complaints with them so far - lets wait for the 20k service

Yeh - would be good to meet up - PM me and I'll give you an e mail address.

Nobles good, all round service is excellent. My car I bought October 2003 from Drive, never gone back for servicing etc. Car needed accident repair in January after white van man destroyed the back end of it - Nobles body shop done an EXCELLENT job, also fitted a UK300 spoiler and colour coding my side skirts too.

Blue - yes - blue or black were the options - and black is too hard to keep clean - clitoris blue as I've heard it described in these parts. Wife thinks its horrible. Looking for a private plate next month ( after payday !). Currently SJ02 ...

Lucky you John boy!!!

No Duran Duran for you - what an escape. I am getting a new Pioneer stereo & Genesis component speakers, sound deadening etc installed tomorrow @ DRM in Bathgate. Should be a VAST improvement over the rubbish installed by Subaru.

Nice to see the WR1 is also blessed with the same junk, even at £30k!! Doh.

Next on the list - Prodrive springs. Probably get Swifts to fit and align them if that works out cheaper than Nobles but don't know really!

Nobles done a good job for you though, yeah?

Brian.

Hope to see you even for a brief moment spooks.

Tell me about your springs - how much, where from, did you fit them yourself.

Get the alignment done by Swifts in Whitburn - brand new gear and the best available. Done by George who used to work for Falkland Performance.

evojkp - sure I've seen you in Livi - Blue blob eye ?? JKP. Do you have the seat raised or are you one big hombre ?

The manta .... I had a white GTE - '86 with all the Irmscher Kit ( factory fitted) yelow opel recaro's and the "whale tail " spoiler, white alloys, twin lamps. Not the fastest... but I loved that car.

Bummer - can't make tomorrow unless its tea time ( headin away with the family for the weekend), I thought West Lothian Scooby was talking about next week?

Never mind ... another time I hope.

Cannot make tonight, a better offer has come along, sorry!!

Stiks, yeah probably me you have seen......as you mention, I'm not too easy to miss I'm sure someone is slipping steriods (or is that heamaroids (sp)) into my Belhavens

Brian, definite lucky escape last night, although I got a running commentary via mobile...sad, to say the least. She even came back last night with a Duran duran coffee mug and a tour T shirt . She's not quite got the grasp that it was half her lifetime ago, that they were the rage, she was only half way through her secondary education then!!
Although the great escape is only half complete. I need to get out of Donny Osmond at the esplanade

Hopefully catch up next week.....John

Oh dear - that is even worse. Duran Duran I could suffer (minus the mug and T-Shirt) by Donny - drastic measures needed!!

Maybe you could run over yourself with the car?
