scooby222

Id like to announce Gordon G1983 and Chris Mctwistuk as joint glasgow RO's taking over from Kenny and Keira - thanks to both of them for their time in the role and welcome to the new team

nope Chris, as it was just you and me Ive let them know we wont be attending this year

best bits are soooo many but that very first drive home in 2000 on a sunny night with a brand new uk turbo is etched forever in my mind, chasing Higgy in crazy horse through Glen Shee, the Mcrae Gathering and all the Flings ive organised - letting me meet so many fantastic nutters Fling highlight is definitely the first Applecross run with Grant and Imy behind me in the Banana worst bit - without any doubt writing off my first scoob, still makes me want to cry

DOH!!! yes Gordon, im due you a bottle - can either give you a replacement or the cash your call, completely forgot about it with all the excitement :S

as theres one or two not in on the facebook banter and pics thought Id stick up a post here to say a huge thanks to everyone who came along and made the 2013 Fling a tremendous weekend and definitely the most eventful Fling ever!!! The usual great banter and amazing scenery but this years breakdowns gave a chance to show the community spirit that makes this so special So thanks again, feel free to stick your pics up those who were there and those who werent....... see you next year Dave 'Flingmeister' Shanks

day one over and its been a mixed bag! weather has given us sleet, snow, rain and sun, some great roads, some poor driving from bikers (and myself ) and the fling's highest attrition rate to date - Glyns out, Kevan's loooking doubtful and Kenny should be all good to go again in the morning! On the whole driving standards have been their usual excellent selves, scenerys gorgeous even in the rain, most of us made it to Inverness on one tank and my new tyres are scrubbed in now Id say..... So bed and up bright and early for day two - looking forward to seeing the reinforcements in the morning O and todays tip is.......... bring water, especially if you have a 2.5 :s

well thats me just home from work so off to the garage to finish polishing, then pack and get my new tyres in the morning - last minute, me? never.....

for those who have forgotten or cant be bothered to look it up, heres a summary of important dates and times for the fling this weekend FRIDAY meet from 11am at Crieff visitor centre http://crieff.co.uk/ food available here as theres no lunch stop! 12 mid day departure from here - if your running late and we dont know your coming we cant wait for you..... Please make sure you have a full tank of fuel before you reach Crieff as theres no vpower there and we have approximately 180 miles ahead of us SATURDAY meet at the Vue cinema car park beside tesco (99 ron fuel available here)at the retail park on the A96, from 9am for a prompt 10am departure There will be a signing on sheet during this time so I have everyones phone number and name in case of emergencys and copies of the route map will be handed out to everyone. Leaving the car park the progressive group will form up and leave first with the second group just behind, please try to make sure your in the right group though you can change places throughout the day Dinner is at 7.30pm in the Royal hotel Ullapool and thats all your getting til the weekend.....

bearing in mind our trek this weekend lets all pay extra attention to Davies post .....

youl be fine Paul, youl get 98 ron in ullapool so unless your really paranoid dont even need octane booster if you have a spare full size wheel might be worth sticking it in, power leads for in car charging and one of those big foam fingers for pointing at Matty when it starts snowing

welcome to the forums - for me its the blob everytime

Theyre right here but in the future Gummy - you just need to hold your computer at 90 degrees and squint really hard to see them, like a magic eye pic....

nice one min Id be up for a stab at this

explain to her that replacing it would mean selling it and putting three years running costs in cash as well - show her some prices of what yours is worth now.... Also remind her of your wedding cake and pics and how selling it would be like losing part of that special day..... and then check if your allowed your kahunas back for the fling

when you bought the runaround..... but your back on track now Paul

I think cherrybank garage or donald kirk bodyshop both do a decent job Kenny

Im with Mark lol but bloody hell youve some big mice Rich...... still looking good - looking forward to seeing it out and about this year min

did you get it from down that way? I know a few bods down there including a techie at palmer subaru if that helps?

welcome along and lovely looking bug - very nice for your first scoob! definitely worth considering an sti before spending too much on what youve got

welcome back Mark, hows tricks? hope the familys well lovely looking hawk, got any plans for it? no idea about the exhaust, like you thought it looked standard - maybe a custom job?

could really use a discount on good quality chinese food Peter, any chance of that?

Ooh tasty number Chris

ok John, how did you do that?????

are they fog lights or the optional PIAA spotlights? if theyre the PIAA's then as Matty says theyre very rare and very expensive as subaru doesnt make them anymore - try AS performance, they list replacement lens for about 70 quid
