Hi,

Just wondering who owns the scooby with the number plate S8 OOBY. I pass it nearly every day on the way to work and it growls like a bastid.

Makes a great noise, but a little to loud for my taste.
When he visits me, I can put the kettle on when I hear him, and have the tea ready by the time he pulls up

I'll let him identify himself if he wants. Maybe he's shy

It used to be on a red '99 (I think), but is now on a P1.

I now have the red my99 that it used to be on, showed up in the HPI check at the dealers when I got it. Mine's now got it's original plate back on, so I'll just have to change my name to Mr S***DVA
Can't believe that my car is in the video (hops to amazon.com - ££kerching££)
Apparently he bought a P1 after selling the '99.

Coincedence or what. I was cleaning me room last night and came across the Duke video: The Subaru Impreza story. Whilst they were interviewing boss man David Lapworth (Prodrive/SWRT) they asked him why the Impreza is such a good car. He then pointed to a red classic shape turbo with this very reg plate on it.

So there is a bit of history on it. What colour/model scoob is it on now?

Simon.
