Smile Finaly I Have my 1st Scooby!!

Hi guys!

FINALY after nearly 11 months of looking high and low for "the one" i picked her up yesterday from Redruth Cornwall. This is my 1st Scooby and after spending the entire w'end driving her i can quite happily say the reality is WAY better than the dream.

I've always been a biker and have had some amazing bikes but due to changing location at work,riding 95 miles a day wasn't fun. So took my car test at 27, got a mitsi colt mirage (now for sale!) and dreamed about having a car that could come close to the bikes.

Holy S**t i've found it! It was a toss up at first between a scooby or a Ducati 996 and thank god the car won lol!

She's a mint 1996 import WRX - not a mark and feels like she's never been sat in! I'm still working my way through all the reams of paper work to find out every detail about her but here's a sample of what she's got,

'96 WRX in Silver with private WRX plate,
Fully colour coded,
Nice pro tints all round
18" 6 spokes on Toyo's,
Light weight bonnet,
Sti front lip and spoiler,
Baily dump valve,
Scorpian SS back box,
Blitz turbo timer/boost guage,
Big brake upgrade,

Previous owner reckons she's at 280 bhp (optimax + octaine booster) but will need to rolling road her to be sure.

Finaly so pleased to be part of the family at last!
Look forward to seeing you all out and about (Torquay area)
(haven't got pic's yet to upload but will do!)

Welcome to Scoobynet and Scoob Ownership mate!!

Make sure you put up pics in the Members Gallery..... Oh, and 280bhp will not be enough soon, you'll be on a constant struggle for more!!


Cheers,
