  1. good news steve[H] hope they work as well as they look
  2. sneaky barstewards, i know the police in perth used to have an unmarked xj6 and have now got an x reg green 330 se beemer which is very discreet. theyve got a couple of marked jags in inverness just now too.
  3. glad you and Jacqi could make it Gee,always nice to se the wr1 though i did think you were going to lose your hand when you held out the keys to Dale! [] martin, id go for the morettes if your ok with the look of them,and maybe a set of spots for the bumper for full fireworks display. ive got brackets for fitting the spots kicking about in the garage if you want. ive tried fancy bulbs and naughty power ones and you just end up blowing them every week or burning out wiring looms-expensive! though apparently piaa do good bulbs at 80 quid a pair!! hope Hammond pulls through ok,sure hel soon be back razzing up another runway. though unconfirmed reports say he was blown off course at 300 mph by the slipstream of a mica red w reg scooby passing him... your sounding very bright steve, take it you managed to find a bottle of morgans then []
  4. nice one euan, warp speed here you come!
  5. cheers to everyone who came out tonight despite the forecast! once again a good run with fun for all despite what can only be described as a monsoon!good of Rich to come along and join in with the rest of us, hope you all managed to float back safely and werent too weighed down by the food! also hope Jacqi and her lovely type r got home ok, sorry we couldnt be more help! comment of the night to steve- why are we standing in the rain? [um] o and Dale, the brewers fayre rang- you forgot to take your activity book with you! []
  6. [pi][pi][pi][au] and absolutely NO [st] [Y]
  7. cars all clean now,fluids and air present and correct and map and camera stuck in door pocket, thats me all ready for tomorrow night. anyone thinking of coming along, be like nike and just do it! most of us dont bite and wel keep Dale on a lead. wel be at the cinema by tesco about 7,out for a wee run about 7.30-45 then back about half 8 at the snowgoose beside tesco for a bite to eat and anyone who cant make it earlier
  8. i spend my day creating planting environments for trees so id go with it. theres plenty of community trusts that have bought areas of ground for the public and plant trees on them that are always looking for donations- or volunteers to plant them for those of you that way inclined!
  9. hi there nice to have a northern girl on board, yep were your closest meet- theres one tomorrow night so if you set off now [] but keep your eyes on the events section,there may be something more suitable appearing soon [] Dave
  10. great thread guys best moment, so many over the last 6 years but top has to be picking up the keys to the first one, being 21, driving down the road on a blazing hot sunny day with the sunroof open- just a wonderful moment. also waiting nervously in tescos car park to see if anyone else would turn up for the first inverness meet- the feeling when the others started rolling in then the looks from everyone at the line of imprezas was just magic. and beating a local lad in his shiny escort cossie so convincingly he traded it for a scoob the next week [] worst- without a doubt seeing the first one lying dead in a field 3 years later, theres no feeling quite like that moment when you know theres absolutely nothing you can do to stop a big accident. not the end she deserved at all [] funniest- following my mates to the receptioin after their wedding. they were in an open top 30s bentley and as we closed in on them at vmax they looked back at about 300 yards cos they could hear me coming!
  11. the car might be standard but ive heard the drivers modified []
  12. i had bubbles of rust start to show on both my my00's, just above the windscreen seal on the drivers side- seems to be a weak spot on them. burnt your first tank of fuel yet []
  13. 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
  14. at last the sheds replacement breaks cover! very nice Dale, cool colour too [H] now hurry up and get rid of that peashooter on the back []
  15. heard you rumbling out of tescos tonight as i was going in, you out to put a towel over a parking bay for wednesday? []
  16. true, but the girlfriend can ourun me [] if its like it was today were laughing! wheres dale with a weather and midge forecast when you need him! sti joy, whereabouts were you driving/staying? hope you enjoyed the roads,hospitality and weather. if your back up again give us a shout, most of us dont bite []
  17. can i just ask that everyone going on this one offers a ritual sacrifice,family loved one first born etc to ensure that we dont get p###ed on by the weather! right off to grab a goat from the field next door
  18. not sure stevel be able to cope with the step up in power! [] you ready to disclose your new motor yet Dale?
  19. depends on what you look at steve, the sort of cars you mention have horrendous servicing costs and parts compared to the impreza,hard to believe though that is! at least with the scoob if you dont run it you dont spend on the fuel,servicing is on time intervals and has to be done even if its only done 100 miles. its one of the main reasons i wwent for the sti rather than an evo. also with tvr youve got to factor in the breakdown costs-if you meet someone with one thats never given them trouble they probably bought it from a talking dog too! but if you include s2000s or 3.0 z4s etc then they wont be too different is this at all related to the link about selling your car? it isnt fooling me, ive put two and two together- you with the chance of 'something special' and Dale saying he wont have his car for much longer- youve bought the shed! []
  20. o so you can find time to go to portugal but not to come to the meets eh,your priorities are all wrong! [] be good if you could make it along either at the start or when we get back to inverness bout half 8. there could be a 22b joining us so then wed just need to get a p1 and ross in his rb5 for a limited edition round up! Dale, your the sort of person who laughs at their own jokes arent you []
  21. tumbleweed blows past
  22. thanks for the support guys, although there seems to still be a bit of confusion as to whether or not ive jumped the gun [:$] hopefully itl be sorted out soon and il let you know the official title then stephen. providing i have one []
  23. drinks for me eh? very generous steve cheers! [] yep dale,it looks like most of the scoobs over here are too shy to come out and play, i think im going to have to get more aggressive with my recruiting. maybe a bikini car wash at the next meet would bring in a few more []
  24. getting near to the next meet and probably the last one with a run mid week for a bit, so thought id try and get some interest from people who are new or dont always read the events section. usual time and place as stated in events, followed by a short run then back in inverness about half 8 for some grub,provisionally at the snowgoose next to tescos, so anyone who cant make it for 7 come and join us there. anyone heard anything from gee wr1 or jason from the first meet or ross with the rb5 from the second? also like to take the chance to officially unveil myself as the new Highland RO and once again say we need more scoobs from inverness!! pleeeaaasssseeee! cheers, Dave
  25. thats bad dale but my girlfriend of the last 4 years is currently in cuba on holiday for two weeks with her folks and her mother specifically said that she didnt want me there as it was a family holiday! [] bloody inlaws! someones getting rat poision in their tea when they get home...
