Unhappy My scoob is gone - console me? :-(

That was my 4th scoob, and definately the hardest to part with

Suspect an ITR will be on the way, so that might cheer me up a little bit

Anyone share my pain?! Sob....

only lost one scoob so far. it was hit by an idiot and written off. However with the payout I got myself a much better one
Looks like you had a lovely motor. I'm sure you will miss the exhaust note for a while to come

And you had to remind me of the exhuast note

Wont miss the "think its running a bit lumpy" comments or the vandalism, or the ridiculous fuel appetite or insurance costs though

Bad luck old boy. Better buy yourself a dark blue something or other, just so your username makes sense again.

Shame to see it go

Look at your bank balance next month or after insurance, service time. It certainly cheered me up but I still miss her.

Ta Andy, I keep doing it though - maybe I like pain

Davey, there is another quite similar one around. My plate's quite distinctive though!

Scooby, I think thats the only plus, but a good one

Unfotunately MY00/99 are quite common at the mo

I had mine in Autotrader online on 2 separate occasions. The first person looking round mine would have bought it, as its a really genuine one (many STi's are crap)

You just need to get someone to come see it! With petrol prices and insurance, scoobs are going to become increasingly unpopular too.

A good price and a webite link with pics on your ad helps very well, as they can see you've made some effort. Also go a few hundred below other similar cars for sale....
