First time I have posted pictures. Here goes.....






Poor quality pictures I know, this is what happens when you take an SLR, scanner and some cr4ppy photo editing software. Digital camera coming next week, can't wait.....

Still love my old motor, don't know which one I like the look of most. New one is still growing on me....

They both look excellent, but the New Age grows on you after a while!

Morettes are nice, but I actually think the STI light cluster looks pretty damn good anyway. Far better than the WRX...

Besides, other mods planned before lights....

Cheers

Hi Simon - New STi looks the business. If I recognise the garage correctly, you're about 10 mins away from us.....

When did you get it Simon? Was it you I saw nipping past Morrisons the other Saturday AM? I was in the MY02 WR Blue wagon, pointing away from town??

Unhappy

Harry Boy

No, wouldn't have been me. I was working in Coventry on Saturday morning, was down there at 8am. Unless you were speaking of the Saturday before and then that might have been me.

Don't recall seeing a WR Blue Wagon recently though so can't have been me, I would have waved

Maybe next time then hey!

Just worked it back Simon - 9th March!! Just had my plates through from the DVLA, so it was almost a maiden voyage.....

Incidentally, how do you find the serving at the 'aforementioned' dealers? Just got mine booked in for the 1000 mile jobbie next week.

Cheers, HB.

Very good, Robert (Sales) sold me both my two Scoobs.. Good for a coffee now and again anyhow!

Service, last car did 66000 miles in 2 years, so it was my second home

They have a new service manager, who appears to be a bit more approachable, looking at him, although not spoken to him yet. The last one was ok, but didn't smile or talk much

The mechanics know what they are doing as well, which is nice.

If it was that weekend, then probably, it was mothering Sunday that weekend, and we picked up some flowers from the shop at Waterloo that morning, so yes, I guess it was me. Can't remember seeing you though..... Did I wave?

Hi Simon - you were in a world of your own Mate.... I'd just come out of the supermarket, and was turning left away from town.

Thanks for the reassurance about the servicing, I feel more optimistic about them than the Sheffield bunch anyway. They didn't seem to know which oil to use!

Spoken to Robert on several occasions - he's been kind enough to let me play with a few pre-bugeyes. Sadly, the lure of Belgian prices was too much to bear.....

See ya' around!!

Cheers, HB.

Belgium price! I can see why.... I must be a mug then, or Robert is a good sales man.

Funny that, I said to him last week that he had the easiest job in the world, selling scoobs. I didn't exactly agree, but saw the funny side of it all the same.

As for letting you play with motors, yes, me too, that's why I have an STI7 on the drive

See you around, will try not to be in a world of my own next time, not like me at all....
