Dazza, nice shots as usual. I think Chris may well be usurped as official Fenay photographer 
I think I'm gonna have to recruit you to do some moody shots of mine
The Ventus tyres will be Hancooks, got them on the Corrado. 17's at £47 per corner and they're really quite good. Never had any problems with them at all I would consider them on the Scoob if the price difference between them and Toyo/Goodyear is too ridiculous to ignore.

The Monckton management are going to start charging you for using their drive...
Some nice shots their mate... was that last one of the meet when you were lying with the camera on the gound?
Make sure you take the camera to the next meet if Ian turns up in the new 'thrapper'...

The wheels are Matrix Shadow 18's, and as CB said the Ventus tyres (not my choice, they were on when I bought it) are indeed made by Hankook. They squeel a bit, but have remained stuck so far (unless intentionally provoked )
Only prob with the wheels is they tend to make the discs look small, but they're better looking than the standard 6 spoke Enkei's and a bleeding damned sight easier to clean than the old VII factory wheels.
Interior shots came out poor, I'll post some in a short while...

sticky: evo 8 is the ultimate! excellent choice - have not seen many YELLOWs!!! there are 2 identical evo 8's flying around in bradford - BOTH lowered, tints all around and in 'satellite blue' - beautiful!
... btw dazza - great pics!!! had the lads from 'scooby mag' come down to take pics of my sub - spent 2 hours getting into some right awkward positions to take the snaps - eventually managed to take 250+ images - keep any eye out in the 1st issue!!!

Looks absolutely superb mate!!!
I'm a Scooby driver and I don't go in for this Scooby/Evo "which is best" lark. Both are good cars.
Certain cars suit certain colours. Bright yellow is a colour that looks really good on a few cars:
EVO VII & VIII
Porsche 911 GT2
Mk2 Escort RS2000 & Mexico
Ferrari 355
And bad on a few:
Anything by Proton
Anything by Hyundai
Anything by Kia
And I don't suppose a Rolls Royce would suit it either!!!!!! Never seen one in yellow!!!!!
By the way.........If I had the money I'd be hard pushed to choose between a new EVO and a new Scoob!!!

In fact, while we were shooting these pics a MK2 RS2000 went past in another nice colour, lime green. Fantastic

Looks fantastic, I think, but then I would...............
This is the first one I've seen like ours, seen a few yellow ones, but not one with the seats done as well.
Tell your mate he's got impecable taste

No I got these from Arnside Garage - http://www.stationgaragearnside.co.uk/
Was talking to Scott Lowe about them, but at the time he hadn't finished his off, and I was desperate for them - having the tyre profile outside of the bodywork is not good!
Dead easy to fit and look the part I think. They do them in yellow, but not quite the same shade so went for black.

did someone say orange peel?lol
Those boot lid close ups show just how ****e the finish is on a new car.
Don't get me wrong dazzler your car looks great and its not your car its all new cars. they all seem to have ****e finishes ( due to using robots and as little paint as possible IMHO) but it just gets my goat.
Anyway great looking car mate, Inside and out! 
ps Subaru's are worse than Mitshubishi's
pps sorry for the rant
