dipsy Posted June 17, 2007 Posted June 17, 2007 Welcome m8 .I have heard of Crimmond with stockcar racing
oobster Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 Very nice cars mate - what's that on the bumper of the blue one? Welcome to the forum too [Y]
FurballPhil Posted June 18, 2007 Author Posted June 18, 2007 Thanks for the welcome. [] On the rear bumper, there`s a wee crack. Previous owner put a little sticker on it rather than fix it. Not had the WRX that long, it`ll be in to have all paint and any little dinks sorted soon. The white classic is full in and out replica, makes a real cheap runaround. Crimond Stock cars is about a 2 min walk from my house. Been hearing them all day today.
RA Dunk Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 fit like min, im along the road fae you in peternapper []
FurballPhil Posted June 18, 2007 Author Posted June 18, 2007 fit like min, im along the road fae you in peternapper [] I`m good thanks. I`ve just been into Phd, had to get my white scooby from my mates drive. My WRX is in at Cartech having it`s Turbo/Downpipe gasket replaced. But a bolt decided to shear itself, so it`s still there till tomorrow. but I still gotta get to Aberdeen tomorrow for work. I took my white one off the road, so had to re-add it to my insurance for a week.
st3ph3n Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 Nice cars Phil. Love the colour of the WRX, very unusual. Welcome to the club too, plenty of action up your neck of the woods. The national day for Scotland is held in Alford and is only a few weeks away.
RA Dunk Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 dont worry stephen if hes planning on hanging around here i will keep him right if he`s into that sort of stuff lol []
FurballPhil Posted June 18, 2007 Author Posted June 18, 2007 Thanks Again for the welcomes and nice comments on the cars. As for meets and events, usually try and make site meets and organised events. So, should be tagging along to most. (Work permitting that is).
diffbuster Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 Im liking the colour of the blue one, the white one looks good also i might know a couple of youngsters who may be interested.I hope you gave your new car a thorough service because the west yorkshire importers where you got it dont do anything but rinse them with a hose before selling.
FurballPhil Posted June 18, 2007 Author Posted June 18, 2007 I`ve got £2k I`m prepared to spend on any niggles. I bought the car with eyes wide open. Saw it`s flaws. Got the price dropped a tidy sum. I`m not afraid of buying a car that could require work, just as long as it`s reflected in the price, or at least be haggled down to a price Got him to tax it for 6mths "after" we agreed a price for the car. So, it`s in getting the known problems sorted and having it looked over for any further or potential ones. But so far so good. I`m thinking this car was once owned by a Paid Member here, it has the SIDC Sticker and an SIDC wallet on the windscreen to hold a membership card
FurballPhil Posted June 19, 2007 Author Posted June 19, 2007 Got my WRX back from having it`s jobs done. Quite Happy with the cost, but Totally Chuffed with the results. Boosting and Running 100% better. Didn`t realise just how much I had been losing. So, my white Scooby is once again relegated to a mates driveway.
RA Dunk Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 what did ya get dont to it anyways? did i spot you last night in peterhead as well, waved to a silver one last night thinking it might be you, didnt get much of a reply though []
FurballPhil Posted June 20, 2007 Author Posted June 20, 2007 no, wasn`t me. i would have waved back. didnt get my WRX back untill 5pm today, was in Cartech since saturday. there`s a few silver ones in this area. mine isnt silver, it has a pearl blue flip through it the car had both the turbo/downpipe and up pipe gaskets replaced. A sheered bolt rethreaded and replaced. Plus a bit of Cast Welding on the Turbo Housing Bracket where the bolts go. She`s running and boosting 100% better than before. I didn`t realise just how much performance I had been losing. Well chuffed... Not too bad of a Bill either.
FurballPhil Posted June 24, 2007 Author Posted June 24, 2007 Quick update......... My White Scooby is now sold... My mate has bought it. Got himself a nice, cheap and eye catching car for a really good deal I gave him. Sold for a "Best Mates Price"...
