If people are that interested in taking their car up and down the airfield I may be able to get use of it privately in the future(perhaps for an evening as a meet, in the lighter evenings.)Not quite the same I know but just asking.

Hello Mark,
How's things?I see you were after another scooby,I thought about selling mine and getting a different one,but not sure it seems worth it at the moment to do about 30 miles a week! Often fancied an S2000 but I enjoy the Subaru too much,I must blag a go in one at some point though.
I know a good sprayer,let me know if you are interested and I will pm you his number,if you name drop me he may give you some discount
Regards
Dean

Hi we're new to this site. Just bought a 98 uk spec turbo.
What time are you meeting up at the Horton Inn??
Its just down the road from us as we live in Poole, and we'd like to meet some of you from the site.

HI Mark/Dean,

When my car got hit last time, it went to 'Woodville Stretton' they're quite a small set-up, kind of behind Jacksone off Holes bay relief road, they did a good job on the Scoob, so when i wanted the boot sprayed i got them to do it... again, very pleased..... if it's not too big a job, they can also be persuaded not to provide an invoice!!


How's about both coming to the meet on Monday....

Or maybe next month when the eves are lighter.....
