Hey there!
 
Hi All,

Feel kind of a fraud at the moment as don't actually have my Scooby yet - however have registered and am soon to be a Scooby owner!

Have already agreed to purchase my 2002 Subaru Impreza WRX Sti Prodrive (bugeye) from chap at work, however have to wait few weeks till he collects his new car before I can get my hands on the scooby :-(

So once I have it - I'll be on here lots, hoping to meet new buddies, and become part of the furniture!

Cheers

Ryan

Welcome aboard :wave:

Guessing from all the posts in the Show n Shine section that you'll be keeping the new scoob nice and shiny :)

Ello :wave:

Rdlangy1 25-03-2014 01:02 PM

Hi 8-)

Steve - yeah I think it's safe to say if I can waste 7-8hrs detailing a crappy mondy, and washing it every week- it's fair to say I'll be keeping the Scooby pretty clean :-)

Hi & :welcome:

Rdlangy1 25-03-2014 02:34 PM

Thanks gents. Can't wait to get her myself!!! The chap said did I want it, agreed a price and then tells me I have to wait till he gets his new car! I'm his boss and if he wasn't selling it to me dirt cheap I'd have gone nuts! Pmsl

Hi and welcome well as you his boss maybe the price needs to be a bit lower as well/plus also you cant wait too long as redundancies could be on the cards as well:five:

Rdlangy1 25-03-2014 05:29 PM

Ha ha ha! Love that!!
The price is pretty good - it's mint - 58k with PPP, new clutch and all belts etc and done 7k in 11yrs he's had it - less than £5k ;-)

Although the pics look OK - the paint is very very flat!!! Needs a good claybar and def machine polish! Its slightly pitted around the scoop too.
There is a big scratch down the passenger side rear bumper, no dent, just paint removed, and also few little scratches on front bumper (see black underneath STi badge).
In general the car is good -although I am a little concerned as there is a big damp patch in the boot (petrol filler side), but its not fuel, just water. The carpet is slightly mouldy, and it smells damp - perhaps boot seal rubber? The rear windows both have condensation on too, again perhaps window seals? Besides that, the engine bay is full of leaves as its been sat under a conifer, but rest is mint! Car pulls very well, although getting into 3rd gear if really ragging it is a little clunky. Also need to get a b oot lid carpet (for inside actual boot lid).
Zm pleased with the car, needs few things doing to it, but its a good little project to get stuck into. Its done 63468 miles, and ive already priced up a timing belt kit from Alyn :-)
Any views or opinions on the faults, please let me know - any help appriciated!

Also - according to the plaque in the console, its edition number 521 of 750 :-)
