Ah Roger - you bought one then!?
I remember seeing you at SMACS when you came with your lad in the F*cus
(I was with wifey in our silver wagon )

It's a love and hate relationship when you have a Scoob though, great when they're going...
Well done fella, get some piccys up

Nice car mate

Crystallise the front, STI rear lights, colour code the mirrors/skirts/spats and handles, front lower splitter and black out the rear and it will be sexual

The scoop and spoiler... They just work - nicely too

Yeah, I get the "I'm gonna be sick" thing all the time too

And the sound!!! Oh the sound
My heart misses a beat every time I think I can hear one coming.
I prefer the sound of the car to the £1k stereo set up I have...

Owned the car far longer than any other & still love it(5yrs). Looks standard, drives standard but when planted, goes like a Rocket.
