Signed on the dotted line today for my 8th Scooby Gone for an std STI in WR Blue. It was a pretty tough choice, but someone had to do it

Hardest bit is having owned most of the cars out there. If I could of got an Alfa 147GTA quickly, I might of tried one of those.


The decision on WRX vs STI was a tough one. Knowing that 9 months will be a lifetime for me, made the depreciation a large factor. I fancied a WRX 5 door with PPP, but by the time I'd added a tracker and some interior trim, it was starting to look expensive. All the trade and price guides also indicated heavier losses on the 5 door than other Scoobies.

You don't keep them very long do you Jonathan?

Good luck with the new Scoob.

Hopefully a PPP will follow. Need a lot of orders at work to pay for it

Was a little concerned that Dave T-S was catching up. I'm sure the enjoyment of the Griffin badge will weat thin in a few months, and he will return
