Default Hi people

Hi there i'm new to the forum I get to pick up my Scooby on Sunday 13/8/06
can't wait.

It is a imported 1993 model

black WRX should be fun

thought I would check out the site in advance to get some ideas of insurance companies cos some of the prices i have been quoted are crazy
I am 25 driving for 7 years, 5 years NCB HGV driver car has CAT1 and tracker and they still try and quote me 2 grand OMG

Best price yet is £780 quid from high performance so I think I may have to go with them

Any way hope to be a regular

Heh - welcome

Picking up my new scoob on Sunday too - MY95 WRX RA

Nearly 2 years without one, just couldn't live any longer without - sad but they get you that way!



Oh & insurance was less that 1/2 yours - benefit of being over 40 I guess
