Cool Finally got a scoob

Finally after being here for years I bought a scoob today It's only a baby one but to me it's still a scoob and what I wanted.









It's a 93 legacy turbo with only 99,000 miles Only mods so far are H&S backbox and Impreza MY99 wheels I can't stop smiling and thinking of reasons to go for a drive

Now looking out for a dawes device and decat for a classic

Cool

has the driver got a bucket seat?

99,000 is relatively low milage - it sure looks clean. Black or navy?

The drivers seat is a 2000 or so Impreza seat and I have the standard one. Lovely seat

99,000 miles is ridiculous, my company car has 10% of that mileage and drives just like it if not worse

The colour is dark blue with a slight metallic hint but in photos it looks black Weird!!!

Congrats! Looks a nice clean motor.

Had the front geom/ALK thing done? Really helps the Leggy IMHO.

Hope the car serves you well

I will, just got to tidy it up a little when the weather's good again I love the wheels but want to see if they'd look best in silver or gold. I really like them as they are so it'll have to look good to sway me

The bonnet scoop back then was just to cool the turbo A bit odd but that's what they chose to do. The intercooler on them is watercooled so they don't have a bonnet scoop for that.

Looks like the old girl has a few admirers paul! Glad you got her home OK despite SE London's best efforts to hold you up in traffic.

As far as geometry, I've never had it checked. Keep her on the Optimax as she definitely runs better on it (more pull at lower revs).

Not sure if you took the Sony Headunit manual by mistake - if you've got it could you post it back to me - Cheers!

All the best

Steven

I've cleaned it inside and out Steven and I haven't found a manual but if I do I know where to find you

Filled it up this morning with optimax again She's going very well and my Fiancee loves it Always a bonus Just on the lookout for mods now

Thanks

Thanks Wasn't sure myself about the wheels. The colour is actually blue not that you'd believe it Look at it it's blue, get the camera out it's black It's a bit weird.
