Unhappy My scoob is gone - console me? :-(

That was my 4th scoob, and definately the hardest to part with

Suspect an ITR will be on the way, so that might cheer me up a little bit

Anyone share my pain?! Sob....

only lost one scoob so far. it was hit by an idiot and written off. However with the payout I got myself a much better one
Looks like you had a lovely motor. I'm sure you will miss the exhaust note for a while to come

And you had to remind me of the exhuast note

Wont miss the "think its running a bit lumpy" comments or the vandalism, or the ridiculous fuel appetite or insurance costs though

Bad luck old boy. Better buy yourself a dark blue something or other, just so your username makes sense again.

Look at your bank balance next month or after insurance, service time. It certainly cheered me up but I still miss her.

Ta Andy, I keep doing it though - maybe I like pain

Davey, there is another quite similar one around. My plate's quite distinctive though!

Scooby, I think thats the only plus, but a good one

Unfotunately MY00/99 are quite common at the mo

I had mine in Autotrader online on 2 separate occasions. The first person looking round mine would have bought it, as its a really genuine one (many STi's are crap)

You just need to get someone to come see it! With petrol prices and insurance, scoobs are going to become increasingly unpopular too.

A good price and a webite link with pics on your ad helps very well, as they can see you've made some effort. Also go a few hundred below other similar cars for sale....
