sold your scoob!
 
how many of you have sold your scoob and wished you had not????

i did about 3 weeks ago classic wrx 95 silver (best colour and fastest)lol.

had it for 2 and a half years never had a prob with it cos i looked after it!

only reason for gettin rid was i thought i needed a change?

how wrong was i.:(

Yup, but really needed to sell. Will be getting another, and better one sometime. Had the chance to buy mine back for under £9k after getting £11k for it just 4 months earlier, but it just isn't the right time yet. I wouldn't have time to enjoy it and need to relieve myself of some/all of my mortgage before I get quite so frivolous again.

yep, sold my '03 STi at end of 2004 (wife gave up work for the kids!).

came into a bit of good fortune in '05, and bought another STi again - wife couldnt stand my constant sulking!

rob2006 08 April 2007 10:12 PM

Sold my 1995 scooby August last year. Wish i did it sooner, diesel saves you so much money..


Now i can afford to go and buy an 03 plate STI next weekend. Whoo hoo:thumb:

Lee247 08 April 2007 10:25 PM

I sold mine but bought another one :) So, no regrets

andy_s37 08 April 2007 11:26 PM

I swapped my mint condition MY97 UK turbo wagon for a Seat Leon Cupra, had the horrible feeling i'd done the wrong thing on the way home from the garage! 3 weeks later i swapped the Leon for a MY99 Uk turbo but still wish i hadn't swapped my wagon.

Traded in my RB5 2 years ago, got a Honda civic type R boy was that a mistake

But on the bright side I picked up a MY05 STI PPP last monday:D

RICH S202 09 April 2007 02:04 PM

I sold my lovely 99 WRX ra v-limited a few weeks ago cause of pressures from the missus. I spent a week sulking around with the intention of buying the obligatory Golf TDI, but then i happened upon a beautiful S202 and thought f**k it, and i bought it. It is currently being registered so i should get it soon and i still havent told the missus ha ha:nono:
What the hell, i m taking her to Hawaii in a couple of weeks so she wont have a chance to complain.:lol:

My other half did that...personally I was tempted but stuck to the Scoobs! Have just bought a Hawkeye and am sooo glad I didn't stray!

Have a lovely 350 BHP STI for sale if you wish to repent!!!

Sold my V1 STi Wagon, was as rare as hens teeth, worst thing I ever did, knew i'd done the wrong thing as soon as I watched it drive away.
Fuel bills were killing me at the time though

you cant compair the evo to scoobys,,,as its a diffrent drive (more in your face),,,,but both have there good / bad points

get one you might like it

i do, but just miss the noise of the subaru,,,,this is my only reson for wanting another

Robin Mullan 09 April 2007 08:52 PM

Had a 94 WRX, great car, Bought a 98 STI V4 TYPE R, even greater car so no regrets.;)

snowy78 09 April 2007 08:55 PM

Im on my 5th Scob now, I keep selling them cos they cost alot (and the pressure from the WIFE !) then when driving around in what every car ive got after (normally a MK4 Golf) I wish i had'nt got rid of them, they put a smile on my face when im driving and so far no other car has done that and to me thats whats its all about.

bluto22b 10 April 2007 12:22 PM

I sold mine and haven't looked back, bought Impreza's for donkeys years wearing WR blue tinted spectacles until the day I bought Audi Driver magazine and took them off to read it and decided upon a test drive the following week. Wouldn't even bother stepping into a Subaru dealership again, especially when they bring out plug ugly hatchbacks.

Audi: A dedicated magazine once a month (Audi Driver, look out for it at your newsagent), a unique channel on Sky (884), what more could the enthusiat ask for?

Oh, and Audi send me a magazine free every quarter

Motoring bliss.......

You should meet Audilover.....

Really? Does she wear clean underwear?

Steve Whitehorn 10 April 2007 08:42 PM

Yes they could fall in love and then be blissfully bored together in their dull but very well engineered sofa for the autobahn with the 4 ring pieces.

Scoobymart 10 April 2007 08:46 PM

You've not found Audinet yet then bluto,:confused: you must still have a soft spot for the old scoobs mate:thumb:
