For all those in the Edinburgh area that are wanting a preview of the new scooby then get yourself out to Edinburgh airport. You will find a new impreza 2.0 WRX silver four door at the arrivals baggage reclaim area. Just arrived back from London this afternoon and there it was. First thoughts front could get used to but the excuse for a rear wing will have to get sorted. The boot area seems shorter but appears wider. Not sure I would pay for a new car knowing I would have to shell out immediately to make it look how I wanted.

That's exactly the way I felt yesterday at the motor show. It's an OK looking car but:

1. Wheels are ****e (look cheap IMHO)
2. Rear spoiler is ****e
3. Lower front Spoiler is needed
- this is on top of the Prodrive Mods which I am sure will not be cheap!!

So what is really supposed to be an affordable performance car may end up around £28K (£23K + £3K + £2K)and its not even an STI. Rather have a P1 for that money!!

I couldn't make it to the motor show.

So I'm off to the airport for a look...

I wonder what the poor guy (or gal) will think when they get back and discover a crowd of Scooby nutters clustered around their car???

So I dropped by the airport on my way home last night...

Hmmmmm, suppose it's a bit better in the flesh. Still not so keen on the front. The rear end is FAT
Wheel arches look a bit too big, even with the 17" wheels. 18"ers would probably look better.

Anyway, thanks for the tip Gorilla...

"at the arrivals baggage reclaim area"

Is this why they made it so ugly?

You would never get it confused and take someone elses by mistake while waiting for it to come round on the carousel.

Unless the guy next to you was waiting for his Corolla
