Hello,
I'm starting an Impreza Club in Portugal (http://planeta.clix.pt/ImprezaPT/). There are some people interested, but many more are needed! Our objective is very simple: organize Scooby-only track days http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif So, are there any other portuguese scoobynet members interested? Thanks, António Correia Jr. |
I've just got a contract in Lisbon starting 8 Jan for 9 months.
However, I was seriously expecting to sell my Scoob before I go. 3 reasons: 1. I think (though haven't researched it too much) it will be near impossible to comprehensively insure a RHD car in a LHD country for so long. Have been told 6 mths per year is the max, as otherwise there are questions of residency. 2. It's not much fun driving RHD on the right; overtaking is far more difficult. Tried it with a 205GTI in Brussels, took all the fun out of owning a performance car. Really frustrating. 3. I've heard about Portuguese drivers, and Lisbon traffic, and value my life....! Aside from this, I'm getting less and less patient with my 4-door's luggage-carrying capacity, and it'll take ages to drive from London to Lisbon. There is a sneaking fourth reason; I am hoping to get the contract prolonged for a few years, so would buy a LHD scoob to replace it! Shall keep in touch! Ate logo BJH |
By the way, I haven't done a track day... did the Clang'n'ball and it cost me my no claims bonus... http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif

Hi Brendan,
That's the problem when you drive on the wrong side of the road... http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif No one in Portugal has ever done a track day (unfortunately!!!). For some strange reason, our tracks are not available to the general public. Let's see if we can change that. Anyway, I hope to have something worked out (Impreza Club) by January next year, so feel free to contact me. See you, António Correia Jr. |
Yes there are (1 at least).
I've posted a message on your site, and I wish you all the luck. Very interested in the track days stuff, or even in Impreza related meetings. Registered today, but i've been around in this BBS for a while. Great Forum (just like THAT car people keep talking about...) |
Hi,
I've just replied to your post on my forum. Curious about the location of the track though. Now... are there any other Scoobynet members living in Portugal? |
yes my friend.
at least, myself. regards to ferreira <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:<HR>Originally posted by António Correia Jr: <B>Hi, I've just replied to your post on my forum.
