Cheers Greg, looking forward to getting nose to nose with the scooby at the weekend as threw it in the garage Saturday and not touched it since.

The classic was so much more impressive compared to the hawk, just because of the level of affection and attention to detail i could see you gave it

Now up for sale at a bargain price for such a clean example
GLWTS, lets hope it gets a good home, but I doubt whoever does will pay full asking price.

Not sure its that bad as metal and plastic on a metallic always come up different. I'm not even 100% which side took the knock. But it looks like they saved the headlight as they have remained tinted.

What happened to it?

From the wheel shot, the paint looks to have imperfections on the passenger side back edge of the front bumper?

When Graham came to collect he had an 'incident' on the way back to Chester, before he even got out of Hastings.
A Polish guy in a truck reversed out of s side road onto the main road, causing the Scoob to do an emergency stop, but he clipped the front wing.
Damage was apparently minor wing damage, headlight and maybe a cracked bumper.
He continyed on to Chester, so it couldn't of been that bad.

It looks like they managed to save the headlight as it's still tinted. I doubt the bodyshop would of bothered stripping down the headlights in order to match them and the insurer would of replaced them with chrome ones.

That went quickly, be surprised if he got the 11k though, unless he just got lucky with someone wanting that one...

Guy on S'net had a look but had an 'issue' with the stamps in the service book.
The last two stamps where my own as I have a stamp with a log number on it which tallies with my service sheet records and receipts.
Better then any dealer service IMHO as there's a receipt for everything changed and measurements for everything that's inspected and measured i.e inner and outer pad depth, tyre depth.
All checks and replacements are iaw the Subaru Service Schedule.
The only think I won't do is a cambelt, these end up with Vince at RDS.

I'm sure the car he has bought with all the service stamps 'in order' has been looked after just aswell, because the service book say's so

From my experience of the majority of cars with full dealer service history, the bonnet only get's lifted by the dealer once every 12-24 months. But unfortunatly it's what the majority of buyer's look for.
