So I've always thought since I've had mine that there's a pretty strong showing in Colchester when it comes to the flat four rumble, but there seems to be more about every day! Given the sunshine today I got a bit of cycling in, and within 30 mins I'd seen 4 scoobies, a dark blue classic in Manningtree, a black blob with pink wheels in St. Johns, then a silver blob with white wheels and another classic in silver/silver wheels with an STi front splitter both on the same round-about on Ipswich road!

To add to this I regularly see two blue blobs, a white despoilered blob which may be a spec c, and a maroon bugeye. So how many are on good old SN?

 

I'm in Colchester in the type r

 

May be my mica red bug with black sti boot spoiler and black innovits as I venture in colchester quite a lot. Agree that there seems to be a growing number there recently. They all wave too.... Quite a few in Harwich and see a red classic and a couple of blue blobs on route to ipswich every day...again all waving. Happy days.

 

Yep red one I've seen is definitely yours, apologies for calling it maroon lol, look smart. Stu your type R is probably one of the few I haven't seen! Crystal grey newage seen in Ardleigh today

 

mine only gets out on a sat or Sunday
only do about 30 miles a week in it

 

Im in Colchester, Have a widetrack JDM STi

Mines the one with the white wheels.

 

I'm always in Colchester as my daughter dances there and gets her custom costumes made there.....UK300 Bug



I saw yours the other day Dibbley in Stanway Sainsbury's looked so nice

 

mine



maybe we should have a mini Colchester meet ;-)

 

maybe we should have a mini Colchester meet ;-)[/QUOTE]

Sounds an idea... I am up for that. Although if your interested chaps there is a meet in ipswich with scooby city on 18th at the thrasher. Good turn out and good crowd. Very Nice cars by the way.

 

Cheers bud... Its a cross between red and dirt brown so your correct on the colour :-)

 

Seen Dibbley about a few times.
I'm in clacton, but work in Colchester. Blue blob gold wheels currently for winter, white for summer.
Seen a few others but not sure if they are scoobynetters?

 

Can't we have Colchester VW Caddy vans to make me feel better ??

 

Bloody northern carrot crunchers

 

You'll be back.....once your business booms like mad (and you employ staff-wink wink) you'll soon be in one again Boyd.

 

Think I may have seen dibbleys also whilst at Thomas's bike shop at one of the units there last year, unless there's another widetrack on white wheels about!

I'll stick a pic of mine up once it's back together, it's just come back from the paintshop and needs bumpers/skirts/spoiler/arch liners refitted, so that's my weekend taken care of..

 

BODSKI don't suppose you know a good dent man? I'm after someone to do all four doors. All just car park stuff. Also any suggestions on wheel refurbs? I've used wheelworx before and was very happy with the quality, but not sure if you know of anyone else.

Will no doubt need your services also once the paintwork/dents are all sorted!

 

Give Barney the dentman a call. Worked on loads of Essex Scoobs in the past.

07801 248 933

 

I'm near Colchester but don't have Scoob anymore, they always catch my eye though every time I see one

 

You might see me up there soon. Well in the summer.
Colchester is my birth town but moved when i was 9. Planning a visit back soon.
I lived at 79 Guildford Road on the Riverside Estate.. so i'm told.

Only been back once since moved. About time for another visit.

 

Cheers 7, I'll try Barney, what I'm after is someone who's realistic and can give me a per panel price, rather than the £75 odd big companies will try to charge you for each dent!

Allan, funnily enough, Aston's tend to catch my eye when I see them! I know of a V8 Vantage that lives up the road from me in Manningtree, or should say I've seen it a fair few times!

Hawky, I know your old estate quite well as a friend used to live there when we were kids, used to stay there a lot after nights out as a short drunken walk from town lol

 

328... i can remember it remarkably well. I used to fish in the river and there was a lake there which i'm told is all but gone now.
The military tattoo was always a great one aswell. was held in the park right nr the estate.

 

Could be me, Thomas Cycles is my second home. White Grids on my for summer.

 

Ah right, you know what I thought the one I saw was on grids, but couldn't remember for sure, just that they were deffo white lol, must of been yours then! looked smart :-)

 

This one?

 

Mine is parked at work on the hythe at the moment, you wont see me drive around in it though I have sorned it. Brought it as a toy a year ago and done about 50 miles in it!

 

yes there are a few about, there's a DB9 near me.

 

Ahh the picture worked, heres 2 more.

 

Darren... that's a stunning motor mate. But how do those tyres not touch the wings in cornering. Is the suspension really that hard !!

Just out of interest, as i've not looked, will my blobeye sti have front fogs behind the covers like yours ? I've only just got mine but figured it didn't as i don't have a switch for front fogs. It's blanked.

 

Its all in the set-up of camber, ride height, suspension stiffness, tyre choice. Took a while to get right, they did rub on day one, but GBH Motorsport has given me a wicked set-up.

Regarding the fog lights, no, yours will not have lights behind.....neither did mine. the covers are one thing, and the fog light surrounds are another.
That's what you see on mine, they are the fog light surrounds, just with no lights fitted, I use one as a CAI, other is just to balance the look up.

 

I promise you, you will never get a better deal off anyone else
