Smile Hello all. newbie from essex

Hi all this is my first post on scoobynet as i do not yet have a scooby but as i have just hit the magic age of 25 were i can insure a scooby turbo. but i dont have the first clue what i should be looking for i will have around £4000 so i know i wont get much but i am after a standered impreza that is in good condiction and will most of all be reliable as it will be used every day to go to and from work. So what should i be looking for are there things to look out for on the older scoobys?????. I work on cars all day every day as i fit alarms, trackers, audio ect but i dont know what i should be looking for mechanically or body work. Thanks Reevesy
