On arecent visit to Guildford, Surrey, my wife counted 9 Imprezas & 3 Legacy Estates in one multi storey car park! Is this a record? Has anyone seen more Scoobies in one place (apart from a meet or a Dealership!) at one time.

How comes I never seem to see any in the area when I'm driving mine? Hang on, I've answered that one, they are all parked in the car park

There’s another dealer in Haslemere, Concours who have at last given me a delivery date of the 15th June for my P1
(Only 3 Months Late!)

Looking forward to the 15th…..

You have two dealers fairly close to Guildford. Bell & C and Ewell Subaru.

Green 5 Dr nearly every day, I always wave but the 60ish year old women driving always blanks me!!!

Then there are the Law Enforcement Officers who must arrest me soon for illegal waving!!

See you on the road

Nah, Cambridge is definitely Scoob King! Went for a 10-min drive to a local Audio shop in Cambridge, then 10-min drive home. Saw 8 Turbos, 2 sports and 3 Legacys (Legacies?)!! Frequently see 5-6 when just wandering into town and back again.

Concentration of IT folk you see

It's funny how my wife saw all those Scoobs at one time, I occasionally see them on the road but usually going off on a side road, not "head to head" to give/get a wave

Richard

Thats the record then , any more in other parts of the country I wonder?

Les

See you around the area then (P1)

I work in Guildford and there are three DBMs in our car park. Oh and two unmarked PPP police cars on the A3, one Green, one Red. Friendly petrol pump attendant informed me. So if you see a red or green impreza on the A3 with two blokes in it - don't wave, slow down. I didn't.

Quite embarrassing getting a ticket from a scooby driver.

T99 XXX, yes I was passenger in that lovely dark grey Sti5 that evening, we were coming back from the Odiham bike meet, towards Farnham. At great pace.

On the first wednesday of every month Odiham's population doubles with the amount of two wheel action.
Lots of local plod at the event, in fact there were a couple of them at the end of the pack of bikes which we overtook. Doh. They didn't react thank god.

Anyway to answer your question Jo, Doug the owner of the car is a BBS lurker, not a great contributor...

Chip, i was just going to say Abergavenny (S>wales) The 22B your saw was probably my mates from Ebbw vale. Did he look quite old with Gray hair? He also has an RB5.I noticed that there are a few RB5's down round there. I saw one just the other day coming up through the heads of the valley absolutley flying.

It was a good evening at Odiham - but too many plod - more than last month. I was the passenger that night on the blue R1 that you waved passed going up the hill to roundabout (about 10.15pm) - then you overtook the lot of us! Cheeky We both spotted you as we're both Scooby owners too (White STI 4 & Silver MY95 WRX)
