Are you from B'north then Burns....? We (my g/f and i) live just outside and are both scooby drivers, Maybe we could meet sometime or you could join us at one of the SSC meets.

Zola-the-Master, Harvey where did ya dig that one up from??? now there is an idea for the summer, You & Paula arrange somewhere [nice pub] and we'll come over to Bridgnorth, perhaps have a Mini Blast round shropshire ??? ending in Bridgnorth ??

Zola-the-master

Blooming Eck.... Gazza, there's no hiding from you is there.... lol
A meet over this way has been mentioned before, There's plenty of decent pubs by the river with good sized car parks etc and of course a few twistys.
I'll get my thinking cap on and get something sorted.

Have you ever seen them preparing the rally subaru's at Faintree Garage near bridgnorth, a few years ago i bought a 205 gti off one of the mechanics there, just before i left on the night they were road testing one one them you could hear the car returning to the garage when it was miles away

You could always go down to the river and rail at hampton load,big field next to the river and the pub serves food outside in summer.Our window cleaner was telling me about the faintree impreza he said it was a 2.5 ltr.

Richjt

I'm probally going back to 2003 when i bought the 205 i'll never forget the sound of those cars, best thing about it though it was about 10.30pm until they went out in the cars all you could hear in the countryside was the wildlife owls etc.

Cheers burns, I was already thinking of the River & rail as my mum & dad live just over the river right by the ferry (not in a caravan), lol
And no i haven't seen or heard the faintree Impreza, Isn't the faintree garage a skoda garage......? or am i getting confused,

Richjt

Yeah it is a Skoda dealer but i think it was the managing director that used to race the impreza's

Ain't to sure who owns the impreza but they still rally the car and it's preped at Faintree's new workshop in bridgnorth.

Zola-the-master

Oh i see, Thats interesting, Could be a good place to go for serviceing and possible tuning then, they obviously know their stuff.

Richjt

Where are they based now? when i went in 2003 they were if i recall they were on the Ludlow road(going out of Bridgnorth) just past a very sharp bend on your lefthand side

Servicing possibly but tuning,I'd stick to the tried and tested folks such as API,Andy forrest,bob rawle,Jolly green monster,scoobyclinic etc they know their impreza's.Mine's about to go to API for a bigger turbo and a remap
