Welcome along to Subaru ownership.

What a good looking car you now have, do love the classic form.
Take your time in deciding what/if any parts to change, there's no rush.

Most of all enjoy ever ride, they are fantastic cars, and the sound is very addictive

Keep it looking the way it does now!!! Early pre-facelift classic are starting to get more desirable when there kept standard.

Thanks for all the welcomes .
Ive only had it on the road for a week and absolutely love it.
Only things im planning on doing to it at the moment is full exhaust system and replacing the induction kit and also maybe a bigger scoop and rear spoiler .

Nice looking scoob you've got there.

Personally I would keep the standard scoop if I were you, I think the newage scoops look weird on a classic, just too big.

Not been on here for a while but have still been enjoying driving my scooby up until Thursday night that is.
Then this happened .




i was hit by a drink driver coming towards me on my side of the road. i just managed to get out the way of a head on but he still hit my car hard .we got spun round on two wheels before coming to a stop just before the ditch.
what made it worse i had my other half and two children in the car. a 2 month old and 19 month old. luckily none of us were seriously injured apart from the car

Nasty accident, the car may be gone but thankfully you and your family are OK.

I know we all Iove our cars but when all is said and done it's just a lump of metal, it can easily replaced.

I hope your local constabulary apprehended the scum bag as well.

Ouch, that's gotta smart - hope the kids don't have nightmares after that and that the driver gets strung up by his nads - D&D is just not on
