Default AT LAST, TIME TO SHOW OFF THE SILVER BULLET!!!

Hi

Although i've been a member of scoobynet for 3 months i have not posted pics of my car. The reason for this is because after just 3 weeks into scooby ownership my engine blew Seems like i was tucked up by the guy who sold me the car, the guys at my garage said the car had been put together just to sell.

It took me a month to decide what to do with the car as i was so pissed off. Finally bought my dream car and this happens, i was so put off by subaru's i was ready to just sell it as it was and never touch the damn things again.
But, after some serious thought ( and a late night msn chat with xxgomxx) i decided that i shouldn't be put off just because of some **** that tucked me up.

So, after 3 months and a £5k repair bill i'm back

While the car was in the garage i bought crystal headlights, side lights, front indicators and sti lights to cheer myself up.

Anyway, here's some pics, what you guys think

good on ya m8, but complete and utter barstwards who sold you a duff motor, should be strung up by the ballicks. bad enough you had the initial expense of buying the car but to rub salt into the wound

1. they are not that cheap to insure (unless you are an oldie like me)
2. they are not that cheap to run.

glad you made the choice to stay with your scoob and may it never give you another days problems. just don't let the modding bug bite you. if you think you are broke now think again

cheers

I love the car. looks awesome! the interior looks amazing especially the part black leather, part grey sude bucket seats with a white STi logo (nice touch).

the wheels look really good on classics and especially your's. (try not to curb'em)

loverly machine...i mean Scooby
