Default Scooby number 7 😄

Hi guys not been on here much since I sold my p1 back last year, after a clio 182 cup and a mondeo st 220 I realised there was only one car for me. I toyed with a new shape hatch wrx, test drove one but was a bit uninspired, looked at another classic but wanted something newer and ended up settling on a hawk eye wagon, hopefully picking it up tomorrow so anyone around the Rhondda area feel free to give me a wave 👍😄

Good luck with the new motor mate. Once you have a Scoob you always come back for more.

Think your right, never thought I'd have another after I sold the RA but there's something about a Subaru that drags you back and then it has a happy knack of cleaning out your bank account!

I loves a wagon . Thankfully the WRX Hawkeyes have a better HG record than the STi's.

What colour is it? I'll give you a wave

I had a Hawkeye WRX saloon as my first Impreza and found it to be a very good road car with some minor modifications ie replace the exhaust to release some rumble, remap, minor handling modifications (Prodrive lowering springs, Whiteline rear anti roll bar and a good geometry setup) and uprating the brakes.

They have good road manners and make for a very good daily driver plus a good car for when you want to make progress.

I've seen the grey sti in pandy a few times, absolutely love it. I wanted a cool grey version 5/6 wagon but couldn't find one anywhere. So bit the bullet and got the hawk, so far so good as well, very smooth power delivery but very quiet, very unscoobylike lol😄
