Hey Guys

Just found the site a wee while ago, thought id join as im considering getting a Scoob or an Evo, cant make my mind up, Think i know a few of the guys on here already, Steve from Nairn i was at school with seen him and his missus in his big ride scooby a short while ago at halfords Inverness and Ken Ross from Aberdeen was my Computing lecturer when i was gaining my computing BSc.

I currently work offshore as an ROV pilot/tech in the North sea and Norweigan sectors and stay in Inverness, I work 4 weeks on 4 weeks off.

Whats the general view on the UK300 spec ones, quite fancying one of them, All opinions welcomed on what the best model is to buy

Welcome to the club. Got to agree with Peter, a scooby over an Evo any time.

Not sure about the UK300, is that the bugeye WRX with the prodrive rear wing etc.?

Welcome to the forums, I'm on my 3rd Scoob and a large part of the reason I've stayed with them is the Owners Club for the Events, People and Banter.. its fantastic. [H]

Cheers,

Grant

Welcome to the club  [Y] ..  i doubt very much anybody on here will recommend the
evo over our loved scoobies ! ..the scooby is a lot more popular, so that must tell u
something [:P]

As already mentioned, come along to one of the meets, have a look at the cars, someone may even take u out for a spin [:P]

Thanks for the overwhelming welcome!, Much better then the one i got from MLR, And yeah 360ste Id appreciate that mate, I went in my mates Evo 5 and it was awesome, but the comfort factor of a Scooby and cheapness to maintain over the Evo even my Evo owning mate agreed was better, Love the note of a scoob too!

Will prob be January when i buy one, as i will have some pennies saved. But a trip out in one would be awesome so i can decide.

Thanks again fellers

Bar, the evo is a nice car, but nothing sounds as good as a subaru in that price range. The noise will win you over as well as the other things you like.

hi and welcome, like steve says come along to the meet on wed and you can have a look/run in a few diffrent models and the rest of us anoraks,ahem, 'enthusiasts' will be happy to give you advice on the diffrent models and specs. but beware once you hear and experience a scoob theres no going back [:)]

actually steve from nairn is thinking about selling his mega spec wrx,have a look in the for sale section

cheers Dave

Hi aye Bar!  How's it going fella?

Can't believe you're even CONSIDERING an Evo mate![:P]

Nah, seriously though, will be good if you can come along to the meet.  Once you see how friendly everyone is then there'll be no going back!  You might even recognise a few faces from your previous employment![:)]

Drop me a PM if you need a lift out to the retail park (Not sure what you're driving at the mo, if anything).  I already have a passenger for the run but you'll be in safe hands in Steve's motor.  Take some clean underwear though!![:)]
