Afternoon All.
I would like to canvass the TTS members and other users of this thread about a big decision (for me anyway) regarding my scoob.
After turning up at the TTS meetings for over a year now, I have been starting to suffer from "Spoiler Envy". Everbody else's is bigger than mine!
I have decided to eliviate this problem and have acquired the funds to do so. The only problem is I cannot make my mind up which one and where to get it.
I have asked a few people at the meetings and welcomed their comments but a few more (clean) ones won't go a miss!
So for a Classic Scoob in Sonic Blue (it's a Terzo) I have narrowed it down to the following
1) 22b Replica
2) STI Version 5
3) STI Version 6
I am quite keen on getting one of these from DRMotorsport as they arrive fully painted for DIY fitting.
What do you guys think? Are they fairly easy to fit? Are they bad choices?
Should I stick to my small one?
Help me, TTS Members, you're my only hope!

BORRRREEEDDD
As above getting bored with the car problem is it aint worth too much now and fuel and servicing 2 imprezas in one household was a stupid bloody idea
although hers is the rarest we've owned time to get sensible soon stupidly high insurance renewal has forced me to up the Excess to £500.Got sorted with a good premium though from a guy on here Gary Moulson in Surrey can u tell i am bored/boring bye then
Bored MY03 PPP owner wish I'd kept the version 6.

Alright, aint posted in a while but having a spot of bother right now.. I aint no mechanic so sorry if I come across a bit daft while saying this.
My classic scooby is having some performance problems. When the engines cold and around 2.5k revs second and third gear mostly, it feels kind of like the car is about to stall, but isn't... kinda like the turbo's gone on holiday for the winter... It's not happening all the time but enough to have me worried... Has anyone else heard of this? And can anyone recommend a scooby dealer in the NE that would be able to give my car the love and attention it deserves?
At lunch I spotted a nail right in the middle of the front offside tyre.... gutted, took it to " Walker's Tyre's " in team valley (turn into the retail world at the roundabout, first right first left) and asked if he could have a go at repairing it, 2 mins he had the nail out found it hadn't gone all the way through and had it back on the car, I tried to give him a tenner for his troubles as I now had my peace of mind, but he just wouldn't take it. What a gent and I can't recommend him enough, most places would be trying to flog me two front tyres!
