Thanks alot guys. Not sure if this picture came out.

have to just say, that I was really impressed with the dealer (monty's of sheffield).
Ive bought quite a few cars in the past, and I have to say that they were the most courteous, reliable and nice dealers Ive met.
Plus they gave me a far better deal than I could get on a scoob down here in the south.

I nearly paid the same amount for a slightly better specced 03 plate with 12k miles.!!
the dealers down here. Then when the PPP kit became a free item, it was a no brainer.
Plus its the model with the adjustable differential (which Ill wait till my first track day to try out), and the new model also has the bridgestone re070 cut-slick look tyre.

Another good thing has been the friendly reaction from other scooby drivers on the road. Iv had that bit in other makes, but not quite to this degree.

Only real pain is running it in.
Only done 200 miles so far.
Ill take it up to 4.5k revs after 500 miles, and wait till 1000 before I really play.

Congrats on your purchase, looks very nice indeed. Enjoy it. Run it in according to the rulebook though, as before the 1k service it'll have the running in oil in it. You also might want to consider incrementally raising your rev limit after the first 1k rather than just gunning it to the redline at 1001 miles. Scoobies don't generally loosen up fully till after about 5k. Was PP fitted immediately after registration or are you getting it done at the 1k service?

All the best with it,

NS04

PPP kit was fitted at the dealer. from new along with springs, and wheel spray.


will take it easy..there is still plenty of grunt from 3-4k revs anyway.

Didnt realise about the running in oil. Thanks for the tips.
