Default Aberdeen Scooby owners?

Hi all,

Just moved to Aberdeen with my Ruby-Doo and noticed a lot of Imprezas around. Unfortunately the usual flashes and waves I'm accustomed to owning an Impreza down south go down like the titanic!

Does Aberdeen have any meets for enthusiastic Scooby owners who want to talk about their cars and exchange ideas?? If so please get in touch! Cambelt is due in 1k and MOT end of the year and I need a careful garage that can accommodate a de-cat for MOT if you catch my drift!

Any info gratefully received as always chaps!

Ben

Lots of them Really? I hardly see any these days compared with a few years ago.

Brian Downie would do the job, so no disrespect to him. However, if you can fit him in around his offshore visits, then WUZ is your man. A member on here since the stone age and a well respected fiddler with Imprezas by us North East owners. Has looked after mine since 2005.

Nope no open airfields unfortunately.
I tried a few times to get use of the runway at Kinloss but never got anywhere. Even when they announced the closure of the place and there was no flying! Pity really cos it had some good bits out through the trees on the north side.

Cheers will ring Clark either later today or on Monday. Scoob's ABS light came on last night and got a whurring from the pump below the brake block infront of the air box so suspect need to get my refurbed calipers ordered asap and get the to fit them at the same time. Can't complain, this is the first major expense in 2 trouble-free years Road sounds good, mabye just the place to bed in the new pads
