ok, i didn't wave... because i was in my crappy commuting Primera rather than the scooby.... but on the M1 this morning around 9am, passing the broken down lorry, I was following a rather clean white Scooby with a nurgurgring sticker on the back..... Gawley?

Cheers Rcomms, was having a look at your impreza a few days ago on your profile and it looks brilliant. I was looking at a couple of RB5's before i got my white one and really loved the colour. Your one is the first STI in that colour that i have seen over here, they must be quite rare.

Even if you had waved this morning i might not have noticed as i think i just woke up about half an hour ago. I think i was on auto pilot the whole way to work this morning after the weekend

What colour is your nissan and i will keep an eye out for you in the future

JJstiuk, Where did you get the splitter at ? And could I be really cheeky and ask what sort of money you are talking about for one?

Feel free to PM the answer if you dont want it on the boards, just got a MY05 STI PPP and it would seriously improve the front.

Photos look excellent by the way........

I have had a few blanks from more recent sti drivers this week also. Maybe they are just not used to the secret club they have unwittingly joined.

i would see a scoob. probably once a week, usually the same one with a middle age woman driving it, i waved at her the first few times however now she's beginning to smile at me when she passes, do i keep waving and risk a beating from the other half and no dinner, or stick with the driving appreciation club?

Depends what you want from your encounters!! Stick with the veneer of appreciating her car. will probably save you getting a battering from your girl. lol

LOL @ mark12, my only advice would be to note the model and year of her car, and if its an upgrade from your own keep smiling. You know how fickle women can be, you may find yourself wanting " an upgrade " at some point.............!!!!!!

I waved three times today on the road to Intl airport from Lisburn and go 2 back !!! Not bad, even though it was me who initiated them !!

The one who didn't wave back was in a classic almost identical to mine
