Not me but I filled up my STI UK (wr blue) a few days before at the same garage. Must be a popular place for us scoob drivers

It's still 89.9 at Tankersley - that 13p per litre more expensive than normal unleaded. I asked them last night when Optimax was coming down...they didn't know!

I fill up near gf in Anston - 86.9p per lite.

Where is st. philips way.....is it the one at the bottom of Brookhill roundabout?

The shell garage where i filled up on sunday morning for 82.9p per litre is on the dual carriageway when you are heading up the hill towards the roundabout near the university and hospitals,if you go on penistone road toward the city centre and follow it right up the hill,its that one one the left

Nah, just a bloody annoying squeeling belt at the front. Actually, they said it was the tensioner in the end...just waiting for a part.

Considering asking how much to fit my new Spoiler while they're at it

I use the one at Hoyland and it is 89.9p there as well.
Did use the one in town the other day and it was way cheaper.

My old S2000 GT is at Montys on the forecourt. Worth a look, it was a fantastic car.

240BHP, RWD, light weight 2 seater... was very quick but back problems and no space for the fishing tackle put paid to that. Impressive at 9250 RPM though and may end up with one in the future for weekend summer use

The STI has made up for it though, cant wait to get the PPP kit on and a decent backbox. Turbo power is so adictive.!!!!!!!

Yeah, low-key. Isn't time you made it a bit more visible? Bet you surprise a few people in the current stealth mode though

I'll have a look round the S2000 when I pick up the Scooby

I wish! Mine is just a MY97 turbo - Reddish Blue.

I like Monty's - like chatting with your mates . It was actually John who told me about scoobynet....he might regret that!

Took the car in a couple of times for minor problems. In the end it does actually need a part replacing...they were going to charge me but I said it's been like that since I got it (3 months ago). he phoned me back and said they'd do it for nowt - though I would've paid If I had to.

So I'll take it back for the service when it' s due. And I'll buy all my scoobies from there

I test drove that one (40k+ on the clock) but just to see if i liked the car but too many miles for me. I got a WR blue STI, 53 plate with just under 8k on the clock. Good bunch of lads there, Dan sold me the car, seems to be a top bloke.
