What model was it?
I had a 220 coupe Turbo. Yes, i know bad handling/build/image and all but it blew the pants of a uk Impreza Turbo a couple of years back (on motorway of course).
Had it for 4 years and nothing expensive went wrong.
Pocket rocket if you ask me.
Prefer my STi anyday though so please Moderator.... don't kick me off!

Just sold my 220 coupe turbo. Great looking car, suprisingly economical and cheap to run. Had it lowered which made it handle better but still had predictable understeer. Passed 135k miles with most expensive fix of a radiator. About as quick as my Scoob I reckon, but you can do so much more with a Scoob. Sold it for just over £2k (£10 per 1 bhp - can't beat that anywhere).
Love my Scoob better despite that glowing rcommendation - almost perfect.

I had a 220 Coupe Turbo before my Scoob. Quicker than a std uk Scoob in a straight line but now that I've got the Scoob can see it really wasn't too much cop in corners. (Mind you the interior was lovely - full leather, serious stereo etc).
