Hi all

Lord

I'm MY02 WR Blue with Morettes, Magnex exhaust (quiet but nice burble), colour coded sills, lip spoiler, mesh grille and a leaking 4 piece WRC style spoiler soon to be changed by the boys at TSL. 8.40 am friday I'm heading into town.

I've seen so many Scoobs in Carlise I might not have been the one.

Driving aroung the lakes?? sounds great..how can I get more info?

Cheers

Lordy

I don't think it's me! There's another WR blue scooby like mine with an STI spoiler and another with a UK300 spoiler about. UK 300 I wave at but similar car to mine cut up my wife last week whilst terrorising a Saxo at Hardwick circus...we are not the same

There are more blue scooby's in Carlisle than Stan Palmers...

How can we get in touch, I remember when I joined I allowed other scoobynet members to "see" my e-mail address.

Evening Fellas,

Did a full reckie run today - A66 to Keswick

Looks like it's going to be a about a 150 mile round trip from Junction 34 (Lancaster North) but as I have had requests for Optimax, you could meet us at Crooklands Shell if you wanted

Hello LordHarding,

I have had to move the dates back because oif other events - click here to see what I mean!

Crooklands is just off Junction 36 on M6 - very near Kendal - get your Carlisle edition of the Reader's digest world atlas out and you might be able to see it

Hello Lord,

Don't mind waiting for you but where - Crooklands?

If you don't want to come all the way down from Carlisle to Lancaster, you could always meet us at the pub in Pooley Bridge

Lordy, Lordy, lordy....

October sounds like a nice day for a trip out, the September outing was a no-no because I was in Manchester.

I should be able to show off TSL's best rear wing so far, I'm dowm there this Saturday, do you want me to bring anything back?.

Am I near the back because I'm older than everyone else???

Cheers

Good Lord (as a vicar would say)

You must be about my age...I always wanted a red XR3(i) and Looked around one about 20 years ago. The rear spoiler seemed to be made of black rubber, but at least the bonnet was like my scoob. I distinctly remember talking to the salesman and sitting on the bonnet. As I left I noticed an **** sized dent.

Cheers

Great day out..TSL unbeatable

New toys.....!

Rear spoiler WRC style, looks like it was sold along with the car, I hear Subaru will offer it as a dealer Mod.

ITG panel filter, with the flies around here I'm sure it will get clogged, but what the Hell.

Black mesh covers for the fog lights

STI bonnet scoop for scaring anybody in a Nissan Micra.



Seriously professional/family service from TSL

I guess the next thing is to lower the thing as tramps could spend the night under the wheel arches !!

Warmest wishes


Midlife....

Lordy

I've just got in and mailed Rusty about next week...I guess he'll send you a copy.

I'll print out the map in a minute and mail back. Interestingly, trouser at TSL called me a tart for going for non-performace bits for the Scoob..QUITE RIGHT TOO!!!!

Hello Guys,

I have Midlife's email but did not think it was my place to forward it - on it's way to you now Lordharding

I was getting quite worried for a while as I had to retire from the Tour of Derbyshire before I even left home as I had a misfire problem, but thanks to these specialists I am now re-united with my Scoob and it is running better than ever

See you both on Sunday, Jon
