Default the salsa-king is back with a scooby...

I sold my Smart Roadster this morning through Piston Heads (and its almost 6years to the day that I sold my M97 turbo too), but this afternoon a deposit has been put down on my next scoob.... a hatch

Picking it up in two weeks when a few things have been sorted and a few extra put in/on the car (mats + mud flaps).


can't wait.

but today has been manic, sorting the car sale out and them driving almost two hours to see the scoob late this afternnon and then buying that lol




shame petrols going up




Phil

I too sold my roadster but a newer smart for two, petrol prices are high and with all the taxes and stuff it's going to be a little tight but I too want to get another scoob, might have to wait till after the summer till I have enough funds.

sad to see the mint condtion roadster go, but the new scoob will be a 3rd car in the house so not used as day to day driving.. petrol costs shouldn't be too bad then... I'm thinking... I'm hoping lol

It's great that everyone is moving forward and all love the hatch now

2and a half years ago people hated it

Now they have all seen sense
Thrown away their flares and tank tops
Cut off their mullets ( well not all of us)
And moved forward and see life after the classic
Which are being transferred into longterm storage and fetched out for show use !,

We are going to have all the hatches in the arena again for the NBO 9

To show everyone just how smart they are !

Nice one, Phil, love the 19" alloys, exhaust finishers, and fog conversion/ front splitter thrown in for good measure. Best colour WASOAD. Enjoy it.

compare sites for insurance aren't liking the 19"s!!!!!!! it's adding £400 to the quote!!!

help!


should it make any difference?
The rest of the car is a 330s.. hence why I thought going that way would be better than expalining is a STi with the PPP mod! ££££££

Should have gone for a proper subaru impreza though... another classic.
(I am a blinkered classic fan boy so perhaps ignore me )

Seriously though, that looks good
