Just a quick hello really.
Just got my 2nd Scoob which is a 2007 2.5 WRX SL WAGON in Silver
Having looked at many that were not as described I found a peach.
68K FSSH Belts Done.Leather,sunroof,xenons etc
I am a happy camper indeed.
Although I had to travel.
From Leeds to Thurso (just west of John O Groats)
Just shy of 1100 miles round trip including fuel stops and finding places to eat etc...

Anybody else have to travel mega miles to find there perfect example??

V3 sti mate, nothing too exciting, but it was forged and at a good price so i snapped it up Gruelling journey there, with some dodgy looking people lol. Drive back was really cool tho. Thats the plus side about long trips - the drive back The one thing that annoyed me was the cost of the Train ticket, i could of saved almost half my money by booking online - didn't realise untill was at the station buying the ticket lol

Lunchmoney

I travelled around 500 miles whilst shopping for my current car. Only to find the one I finally bought about 5 miles from home

SLHawkWagon

Sti is pretty exciting, yes and if you don't mind swapping trains it worksout even cheaper

SLHawkWagon

Thats the one F1FAN... Was tempted with the plate too but after spending £200 on fuel and travel expenses I decided to give it a miss..


The 98 sti looks pretty tidy too..

SLHawkWagon

It was cheap as hed bought a new car allready and nobody was willing to go collect it and he wanted it gone..Bargain..

Yeah, nice car that and a good price. You did well. Sometimes you have to travel to get the best one. I expect located up there he was struggling a bit.

SLHawkWagon

That was exactly it...he'd agreed to sell it 3 times and each time they backed out because of the distance to travel..
