Majorscooby is on his way back!!!!
 

Well the day has come and ive gone and bought myself another scoob after being away for nearly 2 and half years.

I was in process of chasing silversurfers old car but missed the sale by a few days :x

Anyway i came across this on a classic car web site late one night and thought "yeah thats what i want, and in that colour". rang the guy who was selling it and went and viewed the next day. Just after the Arse gropper meet.:ninja:

Its got a few little niggles here and there on the body work but thats to be excepted on a london car, other than that its in an exceptional condition and hasn't (as Krissy b would put it) been ragged around halfords car park buy some chav in nike air max's with a clima cool hat!

Its very standard inside and out but thats what i wanted, something to make my own again.

Ill stick the ad description after the pics.

Hope you like chaps and chapess's, feel free to comment.

Oh and i pick her up next saturday, if all goes to plan!

First Reg: 01/07/1999

Exterior: Speedline Silver Alloys, Toyo Proxes 215/40 ZR17, Locking Wheel Nuts, Standard v5 Spoiler and Exhaust. Visually very similar to the RB5 - just with more power.

• Specialist servicing by either Roger Clark Motorsport or Park Lane Ltd. in Alton.

Issues: Some scuff-marks on alloys and a few door opening/car-park indentations and stone-chips. Some bubbling/beginnings of rust on near-side rear wheel-arch, stopped in its tracks with neutralizer. Interior is absolutely immaculate.

I like that a lot!! Looks like its been looked after too:doubleup:

At last you've spilled the beans. I've been dying to anounce your return.
Welcome back pal
It's a very nice Sti without a doubt.
Very rare to find such a history too

I cant tell you enough how nice it was to hear that flat four and burble on start up when i went to view it!

Just gotta sort insurance out now, Hopefully Mr G Moley will be able to help.

Nice Rich. :nod:

Welcome back to the fold..:five:

very nice indeed!! its strange just how much you miss the burble isnt it!!:-P

Its really nice knowing youve got a scoob Rich,


Well at least now you and Martyn now have a matching pair.


Both rusty under the arches.:whistle::five:

very nice matey, low mileage and good history. de tango it and lose the pink badge on front:whistle:

We are the rusty boys

Very nice matey. I love that colour, looks really clean too.:worthy:

looks great and in one of the best colours as well

Looks a lovely classic chap :)

dont see many in that colour, looks a nice clean scoob
:10:

:mrgreen: Well done Rich :10: welcome back :drive:

That looks like one hell of a good buy!

Thanks guys and girls!

Forgot to mention i payed 5k for it which i didn't think was to bad, reasonable do you think??? not that it really matters i like it, but its nice to know other peoples thoughts, was originally up for 6k.

When i went to view it the guy got all the paper work out to show its service history, never seen so many receipts and bills! i think in one year he covered around 2000 miles if that.

Ive looked at so many and its such a mine field out there, but saw this and thought, Hmmmm yeah i like that, sod it, and bit the bullet.

very nice majorscooby,i will have a turbo one day i hope

Nice looking scoob you have there Major :doubleup:

Shame you didn't get my old'en as you would of been a fantastic person to own it. looks like you found a good un though that you can make put your stamp on, which You would of struggled to do on mine, unless quite a radical change.

Lets start with :
Detango
STi 6 splitter, genuine ABS plastic not fibreglass (www.scoobyparts.com)
and fit a high power Red LED bulb cluster in the rear cluster to re-locate the rear fog (www.ultraleds.co.uk).

Good to have you back mate........

Nice one mate. Are you back to the Ring with it? :rally:

Cheers scott, You hit the nail on the head there with those, apart from the splitter, thats exactly what i picked up on for the first few small mods! Especially that fog light.:wink:

I shall be at the ring this year but probably not in the scoob, ill be shotgun with martyn still. Mine will be tucked up in the garage and kept as a back up car if there is a prob nearer the time, but at the mo its the Prototype all the way. :ok:

This is one clean car that's for sure.

You know it makes sense.
A few tricks up our sleeves

Glad you got what you wanted & think you need to change your signature ;)

We are on the case for the signature. :-)

welcome back mate :ok:

looks a great buy, very rare to find one with so few miles and so unmolested these days. a perfect starting point for you to tinker with :D

nana nana Haaaaaaaaaaaaa haaaaaaaaaaaa :grin:
Yeah cheers steve, i cant wait, think i found a good'un but only time will tell.
Just the insurance to sort out now and like you said on FB hope mr moley can help in that department?!

I can't wait until the weekend now mate.

Very nice Rich. I have a saw and some cardboard to convert the rear-end into a wagon if you can't get on with the boot. :getmecoat:

:-)

:SMBLU:

Welcome back you old fudge muncher :ok:

Welcome back fella, new scoob looks good mate :-)

My greatest apologies Sir that i couldn't return in a wagon!!! :angst:

I just couldn't find one that was suitable or worthiness for the squadron missions and rolls required of me!

I do hope i can still carry on under the wing of chocks chockington and become part of the TMT and free up a space for another worthy fighter pilot?

I may very well take you up on the carboard and saw task if the dog doesn't fit in the boot she is a big old fury lass, the husky that is.

i look forward to a catch up soon over a ginger beer and a wagon wheel, what what, HURRAH. :ok:

You are always part of the Squadron Matey!!!

:SMBLU:
