phew! I'm doing a lot of posting today!

Anyway.
I'm seriously thinking about a scooby, and WRX's seem cheapish (not dissn' the brand!) and the performance is groovyer than standard turbos.

My only problem is that if I was to purchase a WRX where on earth would I get it serviced and maintained? I live in Tunbridge Wells, which is in Kent. I very much doubt that my local scooby dealer, Lancaster Subaru in Sevenoaks, would touch it, for obvious reasons.

So I call on the words of wisdom of the BBS crew to help me out and tell me where a friendly soul can be located who will take care of the mechanical side of my scooby.

Ha! Lancaster Sevenoaks? They wanted a chassis number from me to supply a headlight for my STi (obviously I just said it was for a 99 year car). "Still need it" they said even though it was in April 99 so the 99 year car hadn't been out that long. They reckoned there were 4 different types!!

Anyway, I'm not that far from you (near Hastings) and I used to use Lockyear in Horsham but have found their servicing guy to be a bit disinterested. I now go to ScoobySport in Basildon. Should take about 1 hour from Tun Wells and you know they'll do a good job.

Hope this helps

Ah, the hallowed scoobysport! definitley trust my scooby to them without a doubt.

Any idea if they'd do a courtesy car? My employer might take a somewhat dim view of me taking half/all day off to get car serviced!

Richard F

Courtesy car is it? Man, you want your cake and eat it

Well SS certainly won't do one but Lockyear will if you insure it. Not unless Pete'll let you take his rally car out...

Markus,

I have a 94 WRX so drop me a mail at jon.moss@smith-nephew.com if you fancy meeting up!

Cheers,

Jon.

Hi Markus

There is a place right on yopur doorstep.

I bought my 95 WRX in Crowbrough form GDA. Speak to Graham Daragh on 0385 110650, he does all my servicing for me and is very reasonably priced! £100 for my last service!

The premises are'nt too spectacular, but the service is good - and that's what counts!

Mail me on James.bushell@brewin.co.uk and i'll send you a pic!

James:
Whereabouts in crowborogh are GDA? are they specailist scooby people? guess that if they do WRX's then they are? Don't suppose they have a web site do they?

JAMES BUSHELL

Don't know if they have a website ?

When driving into Crowbrough from the Tunbr. Wells direction - turn right at the main crossroads! Follow this road for about 2 miles. when you start to climb a hill, slow down !! The entrance is on the right - just over the crest (It looks simillar to a farm entrance - well it is - but don't let that put ypu off!) !!
