  1. Gary at Keith Michaels is great, i have both the scoobies insured through them. Really helpful and happy with mods, the comapny they put me with this year even gives you full trackday cover for £60 a day if you want it!!
  2. Col, the reason your insurance was cheaper is that you are an old git!!!
  3. The only problem with that one Gus is i need a bigger garage, Colin might buy it off me though??All he would need to do is leave plenty of cash from the medical bills!! I need to advertise it on here for some normal people to see instead of the spotty geeks that phone from the adtrader, they are just a bunch of dreamers and i dont want them knowing whats in my garage!! Colin had a shot of the YZ up and down the street, i was waiting for a car to be hit!! Probably one of mine as well We need to do a bike run, there is loads of kit on here Steve
  4. Cheers mate Its made easier when the missus has control of 2 of them, she is worse than me!! The big KTM is the mutts nuts though, not everones taste but i love it
  5. Cheers lads, i have to fly every week!!! had a few scary ones recently, plus a few landings that reset the spine if you get what i mean!!
  6. By the way, who is the good looking bloke on that RC8??? Since we are at it i will add my fleet The weekend muddy ones, just been added to with another KTM so if anyone fancies a Yamaha YZ450 i have a spare (by the way, the KTM's are actually road leagl, god knows how!!) And the real ones, big onage beastie is mine, FZ1 belongs to the missus Who fancies a scottish scoobies ride out if we get a summer???
  7. I would like to add my thanks to Gus as well, delivered and fitted air filters and strutbraces for me, all for a cup of tea!!! The man is a star Anyway, whats the update on project Leggy??? And your right, Colin is way, way beyond help!!!! P.S. you need to get yourself across here sometime for a shot on these dirt bikes, what a laugh, carol has learnt how to get air, i have created a monster!!!. However, i am getting old, my bones ache this morning.
  8. Gus, sorry to hear the forrester has had to go, i was looking forward to seeing it in the flesh. However, you know i like the leggy, the GTB we have is a great car to drive, really, really comfy on a long drive plus a superb tow car. Mines towing this weekend, wait til you see what on the trailer, i will send you a picture!! On thing, dont go shopping with the leggy, it can carry so much stuff!!! Everytime ours is a Makro i spend a fortune, if i take the STI its loads cheaper!!! Either that or i could just leave the missus at home?? Steve
  9. Great day guys, and i was going to be Santa, I promise!! However I think Scott really wanted to wear the kit, it was just the perfect size for him. Nice to support the local hospital as well, i think it was appreciated by all involved. Plus, quick note to those that grabbed some food afterwards, on the way home i saw the pink convertible we were talking about, there was a bloke driving it!!! I think i would rather walk. Hopefully see you all soon Steve
  10. Sorry to pester, but do we have a battle plan as yet?? Just because i am away until friday night with work (well, second christmas night out this week actually) and I am supposed to be Santa!! How about this one for a crazy night out, flew to london yesterday afternoon, back this morning all for..... A posh curry!!! And you know what, it was rubbish!! So, Spooks, i am looking forward to some good scran on sunday!!! Cheers Steve
  11. Mince isnt even the start of it, its the worst i have ever heard!! It would be better with some cash off and nothing fitted than the rubbish thats there!! Anyway, after my rant, i have changed the whole system in my STI, went a bit over the top as well but the results are good. I did however keep the old head unit which is actually a Kenwood unit, and I thought i would try and put the head unit in the Leggy GTB i got and guess what, its sounds fine!! Plus when you see the speakers in the STI you will wonder how Subaru managed to actually buy such cheap speakers, they are just no right. So unless you want to spend a packet i would upgrade your speakers and i think you will see a huge differance. Steve
  12. Hi mate My leggy is a GTB GF-BH5, 99 model. The reg doc says 98 but its the newer 99 model i think by the headlights. Love it to bits, it was the additional second car to a 07 STI that we bought this year so a nice complement. Took the two of them to the shell garage the other day, i think we emptyed their supply of V-Power!! How long have you had yours, do you know much about them?? I dont have a manual or anything to help with working on the car and it would be good to have a chat sometime if you have the time. PM me some pictures of yours, i'll send some back Steve
  13. I think i am getting dug into a corner here!! I think i might get arrested driving the STI with the santa suit on. Ok, what is involved in the santa bit, just looking an ass and giving out the presents?? Who would be my elf's?? Can i wear it to the meal afterwards???
  14. Dont start!! My only problem is you have pinched half my tools!!! Anyone else got any serious advice??
  15. Hi all I am going to give my Legacy GTB a service on Saturday, since i have no manual and its the first scooby i have changed the oil on i have two questions 1- what oil should i use and how much will it take? 2- Is there anything special i should do with an oil change on a scooby engine compared to a normal car? More than happy doing the work, just thought i would check with the experts!! Steve
  16. Hmm, unsure, do you think i have the build for it??
  17. Hi guys Both myself and the other half will make the 16th, cant manage the 13th though as i am down south, work xmas party so that will be really messy!! Iain, if you do get rid of the scooby (Nooooo!!) you can always borrow our leggy GTB, infact it would be just spot on for you with the presents and the santa suit on!! Steve
  18. I spoke to Nobles about this beforea and they told me Subaru dont do a code and that they have struggled to get a decent match. Dont know if anyone else has had any luck??
  19. I have ones from the states on my 07 STI, they are superb and when the guys fitted them (on when the car was brand new from Nobles) they said they were some of the best they had seen. http://www.rallyarmor.com/store/index.php They are really strong and look great, well i think so The picture below is up the cairn o'mount, gravel and muck flying everywhere and not up the side of the car. I have been in and out of my mates farm (very dirty and covered in cow muck!!) and the flaps get covered but the car stays clean!!
  20. I have an 07 STI with PPP, sounds lovely!! The standard one was very quiet i thought, just get rid of the standard back box and you will be fine. I think its Subaru's plan to get you to buy the PPP!!
  21. Blocking the street, remember that 20mph sign was put in to slow your missus down!!!
  22. I know, i keep miissing things with being away with work, its not planned!! I will get the missus down, we can bring them both!!
