Hi all,

After 3 weeks of trawling the net for the right car i collected my scooby last night. Any information advice on servicing,tuning, general looking after the car will be appreciated as im on a new learning curve again.

Car is: Sti 2 door type r 555

According to the model number its a v limited 555, does this mean only a few hundred were made or is it just a few fancy stickers and embroidered seats.

Welcome to Scooby ownership!

I'm sure a hundred people on here will tell you this, but I've beaten them to it:

DON'T RUN IT ON ORDINARY UNLEADED!!!!!

unless you fancy doing an engine rebuild.

Mine's a uk my99 so I know nothing about the imports (which I believe yours is) except that all anybody says about them is that they need higher (98 or higher) RON petrol.

Enjoy!

You may well be aware of this but just in case have a look at

Great car BTW
