Tell me 'bout it - the 1st 1 answers to my post were asking for photos of me
LMAO

In fairness IME 75% of the female posters on Scoobynet are total attention wh0res. Usually lasses between 16-25 years of age that rake up 1000s of posts in muppets per month flirting and posting sh*t. As a result when a female posts up the Scoobynet guys usually try to get what they can out of her Btw, I think you should post photos too

(other than scientists examining pond life)

Gad's right - better to ask here about Scoobies!

The 07 hatchback is looking like a top n' tailed current Legacy platform, whuc is gonna make it quite big. Heavier & less wieldy.

Jo, if you'd like an STI , I'm sure I can help you out;

Sensible price

I really wish your partner didn't post on the forum - you give me sooooo much to work with

I really want an STI-5 Type R now! Been reading and researching and basic mods yeild around 320bhp and that equates to 0-100mph in 10.5 seconds or thereabouts. You'd get a lovely example like that and probably have enough money for brake upgrades for

modified cars maybe

in the wet......

standard cars are nothing special

and they all look like sh*t (unless you are 12-21)

I'd rather have a Caterfield any day

which would more than embarrass a modified Imprevo

still, each to their own

There is a stereotypical image of an Impreza driver:

AAARRRRGGHHHHH (sorry about the caps but) NEVER EVER EVER SEARCH FOR SKINHEAD (or variants of) ON GOOGLE IMAGES WITH SAFESEARCH OFF



and you don't fit it.

In the main part true but things like the Spec-C are amazing out the box!!

I know a lot of the roads down south are different but in most of scotland no rwd car can touch a well driven scooby or evo. I pushed the s2000 as hard as I could on a narrow, dodgy rural road to keep up with a scooby and I could only compete on turn in and down the straights. He was always powering out of the corner whilst I was controlling the slip. Up here the 4wd works

NOTHING would pass me on that type of road
True, but in the unwritten guide to dangerous street racing Section 14c states, "pushing someone along is tantamount to victory"
