just a warning, a guy who lives down the road from me is a mechanic and has blown 2 scoob engines basically down to neglect ( low oil ) . Silly i know, but just because hes a mechanic dont mean he looks after it

The VX plate cars were Litchfields so would have been mapped for uk fuel, mine is white still looking for that elusive red limited ending in B as I know where D is and mine is C (red/white/blue )

I`ve seen it on Type-Ra forum and spoke to the owner a while back via forums, He`s also got a mate that`s in Blackpool with a Red Spec-C the same as mine but i`ve never seen either of them about, Is the owner of this still in Blackpool?

Tony, if i ever see the red one i`ll ask him if it was the one on the VX from litchfields as i know it has a private plate on at the moment.

Oh, just to let you know, the guy is not registered as far as I know on that's site as I have been an active member there for the last few years and i'v not seen him or the car on there, might be worth asking a question to see if anyone else knows anything though

Ps my car is post 6 on the type-ra thread
