I was once asked by the Webbie Why I still came here (After the UK300 went) and I told him I was addicted - I don't think he believed me but I still am. I Even went out and got another Subaru so the wife wouldn't think I'm a complete weirdo

As much as I think Im worth a Scooby company car - the man who decides obviously thinks a Ford is more appropriate.... My Husband drives a Honda Civic and has a Honda Blackbird which more than covers the need for speed angle.

But one day perhaps........

It's not just me then!?

I look on SN every day, my excuse is I'm after more mods for my car and it fills up my lunch break!
My missus' has already told me I'm addicted!

I did try to log onto SN while on holiday in Newquay, though for some reason the forum bit wouldn't work - either the site was down or it was something to do with the configuration of the PC's in the internet cafe.

Do you think it may be time to put in an "official grievance"
You should not have to be treated like that these days !!

Yes and this place is addictive.... started work at 6am all this week and my first post was 6.05am yesterday morning and overtime too !!!

I know what you mean, kes3285, i am so addicted to scoobynet it is ubelieveable, i think i sleep on scoobynet. My name says it all.

I have always liked Subarus from the first monmet i had a drive in one, tho it was not a Impreza it was a Legarcy (early versions) estate that my dad used as a courtisy (sp?) car when he used to work for MAFF and the engine of that legarcy sounded really throuby, and was kinda like a tank of a noice and was to drive. i was hooked from then and have been ever since. And when the TOP GEAR JD power servey awards for best car was voted to the Subaru Impreza Turbo, that was it. i was seriously hooked on the impreza...and now some x number of years later, my dad has his own scooby a 03 WRX in yep you guessed it in WR Blue and Gold alloys. i am over the moon...i would hate to think what i will be like when i own my own scooby turbo.
