I thought £700 was quite cheap. I paid £350 for just a bottom end.

fair play those mechanics did a good job of fixing in the scoob running gear i thought the engine would be broken due to the front end damage,next week leepu is going ruin it with his "bespoke design" ie ****e just like every other car he has laid his hands on,did you noticed that the old cars are parked all over the place there i bet they havent sold any of them.
btw should we do a was it you on the scoob someone on here must know who it belonged to.hope they are ok looked like a heavy crash.

Why did they keep saying it was 300BHP, looked like a standard Blob WRX to me.

The engine also mysteriously gained some spangly bits which they didn't explain.

Looking forward to the next instalment though.

Correct it's just a humble wrx, might of been remapped though, so prolly 280. They did say at 1 point after takin it out they were going to 'freshen' it up a bit.
