Cool hello from Belgium!!!

hi everybody!!
greetings from Belgium, a country that loves scoobys but with more restrictive laws to mods them!!
at the moment we are about 70-80 scoobys around belgium, a few of us went to scoobynet shootout this year but it's quite expensive for most of us to go there, maybe we'll try to organise a big event overthere and you'll be all invited !!
last but not the least, i'm the proud owner of the unique sti v3 sports wagon v-limited in europe (outside uk!), just click "view my scooby" and tell me what you think!!!
cheers all mates!!!
Daniel

Evening Daniel,

Nice Waggon.

Like your Cottage/Farmhouse background, do you live in the Countryside?

My favourite bit about Belguim is my favourite Beer, Stella!!!

Well done on that & welcome to Scooby Net.

Regards

Not totaly unique. But a rare as rare can be.
On the road in Austria-Germany and the Chech Republic I have only seen one classic turbo in two years (It was parked in Munich on swiss plates). So a JDM is as rarer than rockinghorse S__T.

The only other JDM classic I know of in Europe at the mo.
Is silver Sti 4 door - A dutch tuner had
Black Sti 4 door - Advertised on autoscout last week German registered
Also seen one red waggon and one black classic 4 door WRX german registered on the net.
Also vaguely remember there was one on Italian plates too.
The swiss seem to be the biggest followers of the Impreza in Europe - I suspect there might be one or two lurking about there.

It may well be the only Sti3 in Europe. But not the only classic Sti - I think you did the right thing and bought a proper scooby LOL

Nice car
Steve

I think Belgioum is very civilised and inspite of what everyboby saiz, I really like Belgium/Brussels . . . Though I strongly feel that the Thalys lead units would look cooler if they had a scoop!

Whilst I do agree that Belgian beer is superb, British ale and cider/perry also gives it a run for the money in the best in the world stakes. You can drink 1000's of different beers with unique variations relating the where in the country they were brewed, what ingredients were used, what techniques were used to make them. There are hundreds of small scale brewing operations the length and breadth of this country carefully crafting barrels of delicious ale, as well as the bigger operations. As for real cider and perry, there's no where else on this earth that makes the stuff like we do. Best tipple known to man

Campaign for Real Ale

Belgian chocolate is the best in the world though

hey mate!! you're right i do like very much english cider, here we can only get STRONGBOW, but i imagine you have a lot more in UK!
But if you can try cider from ASTURIAS, a region of north Spain (i'm originally from south Spain ).
if we meet one day at the next SSO hope you'll offer me to try your cider!!!
