Default At last I have a scooby.......

After years and years of waiting and wanting, i've finally got the car I wanted - MY00 4 door saloon, sonic blue!! (Euro Import).

Picked it up yesterday from devon (I live in lancs), so enjoyed a lovely 280 mile motorway drive back, the car was great, never missed a beat and the performance was fantastic!

Info about the car:
MY00 Sonic Blue 4 door. (sep 2000 euro import).
58000 miles
FSH
PPP :-)
Prodrive suspension
Tracker
Alarm/Immobiliser
17" Speedline Gold superlegerras (I think, could be wrong - from the wrsport catalogue anyway)
Some kind of VTA dump valve that I didn't know about until the test drive (oh well - here I chuffing go, chuff chuff whoosh).
Morettes headlights...... (considering changing back to normal)
Carbon Fibre rear light things..... (considering changing back to normal)
Small STi stickers & Fog Light covers.
4 Gauges, voltage, oil temp, oil press & turbo boost.
Just had 60,000 major service at subaru dealer - cost £750!!
4 brand new pirelli p7000 tyres

The car is in very good nick for its age, a couple of minor scratches etc, nothing noticeable from 6 feet away!

Here's the pics:

Heres my first list of mods/jobs to do:
1. Impreza stainless door sills (where to get)?
2. New centre console near handbrake lid thing because it has a big scratch on it... (anyone got one)?
3. New centre drivers side air vent coz mines broken! (Erm anyone got one)?
4. Can you get a better quality boot liner - its a bit crap!
5. Clean the prodrive exhaust tailpipe - anyone got advice on this?
6. Investigate this noise as reported here: http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthread.php?t=440727

Regards

Happy Dave!!!

PS Hi Dazc if you're reading this - i'm smiling whilst I type - you were right!!

i have absolutely no idea what the cost is for getting it colorcoded


im pretty sure several on this forum have had their sideskirts colored, hopefully someone will reply to that

otherwise in general the cost of getting something painted, like a spoiler or something
