Hi all,

After 3 weeks of trawling the net for the right car i collected my scooby last night. Any information advice on servicing,tuning, general looking after the car will be appreciated as im on a new learning curve again.

Car is: Sti 2 door type r 555

According to the model number its a v limited 555, does this mean only a few hundred were made or is it just a few fancy stickers and embroidered seats.

Welcome to Scooby ownership!

I'm sure a hundred people on here will tell you this, but I've beaten them to it:

DON'T RUN IT ON ORDINARY UNLEADED!!!!!

unless you fancy doing an engine rebuild.

Mine's a uk my99 so I know nothing about the imports (which I believe yours is) except that all anybody says about them is that they need higher (98 or higher) RON petrol.

Enjoy!
