Default Scooby and the beast

Thought i would post a few pics of my pride and joy.My first venture in to scooby,4x4 and turbo ownership (i like a challenge) having previously owned 6 x talbot sunbeams in the early nineties(1.6,ti and lotus all highly modded,still love these),renault 19 16v chamade (wot a mistake that was) and lightly modded peugeot 309 gti (1.9 mi16 engine).





and a few pics of my brothers beast soon to be tearing up the forests on the historic rally circuit.Info on this build can be found here
Opel Manta Owners Club • View topic - TE2800 build

Hi Steve.

The scoob's running Ohlins coilovers.It's been lowered aswell but not sure by how much as this was done when i bought it.When I had it parked next to my mates Terzo it looked at least 3" lower.Wouldn't like to try and get 18's under the arches cos I dont think they'll fit without raising it again and I quite like it low.

Thats a shame. A mate of mine had one, only about 5 years ago though. I'd love one as a project
