EVOLUTION666 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 Right, it would appear that i am set to make a treck even further north than my newcastle home. As a current TTS member, looks like im going to have to find myself a new club. Looking to move as my new job in Arbroath is looking immanent. So, my question is, what goes on in the Aberdeen and Dundee areas as fron what i can gather, im in the middle of the 2? Was up there friday and yesterday and didnt see many fellow scoobs floating around. This post goes on a bit so please bare with me And to another point, im in need of some help with local knowlage if any of you guys or gals can help. Need somewhere to live and im looking at rented housing to start with. My feeling of Arbroath was OK, bit it seem a little quiet TBH, me being a lively young 25 yr old. Stayed in Dundee for the night and it seemed a little bit more lively, more my scene. Can anyone shed any light on the areas where to be and the areas where not to be. Im presuming that the 2 citys are no different to any others on the face of the plannet in that they will have good and bad areas. Not looking for mega posh areas, but on the flip side of that, i do want to be able to sleep safe in the knowlage that when i get up, my pride and joy will still be outside. The type of accomadation im looking at is the small 1 to 2 bed flat, so more oftern than not, im looking at on street parking which concerns me, as at the moment, its currently locked up safe and sound in a garage. Whats the area like behind the Dundee football ground, looks to be good, prices are average and doesnt seem bad at all? Many thank for any help anyone can give, John Link to comment
st3ph3n Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 Don't know what you'd done John, but the forum was broken and no one could reply to your post, so I fixed it. Don't really know about the two cities or that area but we have a very active comunity of Impreza owners in both areas and you're not that far away from Crail for the 1/4 mile racing and KNockhill for the trackdays.

EVOLUTION666 Posted September 24, 2006 Author Share Posted September 24, 2006 Thanks i knew about knockhill and have just been told about crail. Seems to me like a reasonably central location to be in. Now looking forward to the move, hope to see a few of you out and about. What about local meets then, what goes on and where?? john Link to comment
EVOLUTION666 Posted September 24, 2006 Author Share Posted September 24, 2006 On a slightly different note, where is the nearest dealer and what are they like as in terms of service? Most of you may not know, but my car has come with its fair share of problems. 17 months old and its already had 3 engines down to very poor workmanship at my local dealer. It will be requiring major engine work soon i would imagine as the dam thing is still leaking out oil, so a good dealer will be needed to carry out the warranty work on the car, so im torn between getting it back to the origional clows and let them have another go, or to find another more competant outfit. cheers john Link to comment
