Default Newbie from Preston Lancs saying Hi!

Hi Folks...
Just bought a scooby after years n years of wanting!!
Its a 04 WRX with a few of the normal add-on bits n bobs ...wheels, carbon bits, catback pipe, headlights etc
Done 51000 miles, Ive done about a hundred upto now in it and got to say.. I love it, altho its a bit different to my last motor, a 3.0l S type Jag! The mrs aint too impressed with the rear wing n din from the pipe but hey...she'll get over it!!...







Im from Preston Lancs, aged from the mk1/2 RS2000/Chev HS2300 era and an elec engineer by trade!

Finally ....Been a big biker fan for ever, raced /trackdayed bikes for years and a diehard MotoGp fan..
Heres my other 'pride n joy' owned/rebuilt by me since 2006...

PhaseOne/QBCarbon 2003 World Endurance Championship winning Suzuki GSXR1000....

Lovely motor! I think the scoop in grey would look better but other than that it's a minter.

Lovely silver scoob mate. I've been thinking about getting a nice set of black mudflaps for mine and wondered what they might look like. Yummy leather interior too! Good work!
