Finally Bought One..... A Scooby.....
 

So it wasn't the dream Scooby i was after, it wasn't the STi, i was after, it wasn't the BLUE Scooby i was after, it wasn't a Type R i was after, it wasn't the import i was after.

Its ALOT of stuff i wasn't after. lol

BUT it is the low mileage example i wanted, in a colour that has grown on me for a price that was RIGHT for me, and a condition that isn't perfect but its defo workable.

Its a Green UK Turbo 2000. T Reg. 71k Some Subaru History, and other service history, ALOT of paperwork and recipts, and all for a very nice price imo.

I've not fully paid for it yet and i'm picking it up in March :-)




ALL comments welcome, good or bad. I know about the chav lights, they ARE getting changed.

looks like a good buy, good price, enjoy.

Good for you Dave, about time:).......Looks a nice car mate, few goodies too. There is a green one near me, and i must say when its polished up and clean it does look real nice. Well done, and good luck with it all mate.

wheels will be getting changed, and it will be getting lowered, got a couple of interior changes to do, but other than that, its pretty much sorted :-)

I was going to mention the wheels ;) put the standard air box back on, filters can cause issues if your not careful :(

Tony:)

what issues can the filters cause? i know of vauxhalls they suffer with massive heat soak, wasn't sure of issues with the Impreza

MAF sensors on the MY99/00's, its recommended NOT to go with an oiled filter or induction kit.

Tony:)

Looks a good base to improve on.

okies, will fit the standard airbox with a panel filter, unless you've got a better sugestion?

Forest green if I'm not mistaken. That is a lovely colour when it's polished. I kinda like them alloys. My first Impreza was the same colour as yours and in some ways it was the one that I enjoyed the most.:)

i like the wheels, can you not get them sprayed gun metal grey?, that would look nice.
yes loose the lights and induction kit.

lights are defo going, induction kit is now going, and i want 17in alloys, i like the ones that are on, but 18in tyres are expensive.

18's are wrong on a classic... unless full of brakes !

Enjoy it !

dunx

bang tidy scoob bud! :)

If the car is right for you mate, thats all that matters :thumb:

They have been mentioned above but I would personally remove the lexarse lights and the wheels have to go. This is, of course my opinion, you can tell me to f*ck off if you want ;)

Wheels and lexus lights are going, prev owner has standard lights, so i'll be fitting the when i pick her up.

I'm loving it :luvlove: but + 1 on the wheels not my cup of tea.

want some standard 17in alloys, gold would be cool, but gun metal gray would also work very well.

very nice

There is no "better" suggestion mate:thumb:

Looks a minter,very nice. :cool: :thumb:

lol ok, its not gonna do it any harm until i can get a standard airbox is it?

I actually quite like that colour and the wheels too. Maybe like said above, have them sprayed a dark grey colour.
The lights are awful though and not keen on that huge spoiler, STI Version 2/3 spoiler would look alot nicer.

Picking up in march....i would be having an airbox and panel filter ready for then...

scooby
 

Where you from bud? I saw a nice looking green impreza very similar to this on my way home tonight 5.15 ish middlewich giving it the full beans, and boy did it sound sweet!!!! Prob not that car tho.

Good luck with ur new toy anyway, enjoy. :thumb:

~Hope it was'nt the current owner blowing the b0ll0cks off it for a few last horrahs!!!.....sure it was'nt Dave......maybe:thumb::D

lol so do i, the car is in Bury, i have no idea where Middlewich is.

I love the huge spoiler, always wanted one with the huge spoiler :-)

Got a couple of things to buy to fit to the car when i pick it up. Airbox is one of them, shes gonna need LHD headlights for Germany, standard lights or STi clear lights.

right question time, how can i tell which MY the car is, and how to tell which ECU it has to weather it can be mapped or not, and which engine is in my car?

honestly, about 35 mins away- if that! probably 20 mins in that particular case:wonder:. lets be honest though, we all blow off the cobwebs now and again, its what they were made for:)
