Default New-ish member and a bugeye!

Firstly, good evening to you all!

I joined this forum a little while back, but my both Parent's health took a serious downfall, so (naturally) they got all I could give to return then to full health - and thankfully all is good and well! So back to Scoobies I go

I've been driving a Blobeye GX Sport for a couple of years, and today I part-exchanged my faithful steed for a '02 Bugeye WRX, 1 previous owner on 81k, and I'm in love... that first drive home from the middle of Kent will be remembered as my first taste of "proper" Scooby power.

No massive plans for it just yet, though I want to refresh the exhaust system in the future. It has a stainless backbox installed by the previous owner, though I'm not sure what it is - maybe someone can ID it? Will have to get a picture tomorrow. I had a Hayward and Scott system on my N/A and this looks similar, but not.

Looking very clean, wonder how long that lasts in the wintery weather!


Last pic of my GX Sport at the dealers..


Cheers!

Thank you all for the warm welcome!

Monk - I loved my old GX Sport, would get another one in an instant if I had too, then get it looking exactly the same as that one!
