Exclamation Back to the fold with a MY03 STi PPP etc etc

After being Scoobyless for several years (sorry i've always been a Cosworth man through and through ) I ditched the RS500 and bought a Scooby again...





Regards,
Shaun.

But Shaun, weren't you saying Scoobies were slow and any old TD could destroy one...
Should have bought yourself a Golf Mk5 TD.

Dave A,
Fairly loud..... but even louder if i'm in Chav mode and have the rear windows down!

Sith,
Best of both worlds......... when I feel the need for speed I just get the Golf out! lol No need in me getting a Mk5 TD, since my Mk4 GT TDi has been modded to give 195bhp and 285 lb/ft!

Regards,
Shaun.

Supertouring,
Sorry thats what I meant when I typed it (christ knows what I was thinking about at the time).

jb2000,
lol.... If only!

DJM,
Chalk and cheese mate!

The RS500 was 500bhp on a huge T4 turbo, so it was lagsville until just over 4k rpm and then 2.3 bar of boost until the redline at 7.5k. Couple that with RWD and it was a handle to say the least!

The RS500 handled very well..... but alas my driving experience (read bottle) did not allow me to throw it around like I would of liked.

Regards,
Shaun.
