  1. I was just having a wee flick thru the teletext there and spotted the story about the crash, so I thought I'd log on to see if what I was reading was true - totally shocked to see that it is true by the looks of it. RIP Colin - thoughts are with his family and the other victims families too.
  2. Spotted you coming onto the M8 off the M80 around 4pm squirrel - car was looking nice
  3. Well, since I was one of the ones to condemn you for your youtube video, I'd like to explain why I did so. Basically it was because I see an erosion in the news and with friends & work colleagues attitudes with the marque - and I think it's down to the 'boy racer' image that Subaru gets nowadays, which I attribute to videos like yours appearing on youtube (amongst other things). Sure, there are probably very few of the members on here that don't fully exploit the performance of their cars when conditions etc are appropriate but there are many many small-minded people in the world that would interpret your video as boy-racer behaviour. Perhaps, with hindsight, my 'Idiot' post was a litte strong and I apologise - I was more annoyed that the video was on a very popular website than is likely to get viewed hundreds if not thousands of times than I was that you had actually done the doughnuts in the first place (which, by the way, must take a certain amount of skill & that I wouldn't have the confidence to attempt). I'm proud of my Subaru and as such I don't want to be labelled as a boy racer when I'm nothing of the sort.
  4. Wow! Thats is just SO BIG and CLEVER of you! I am so impressed! Idiot.
  5. Wasn't Dicksons of Dunblane on the new recently because of some court case and the judge was very scathing of the owner? Edit: Found the link: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/taysid...ral/6949646.stm
  6. Guys Guys Guys The whole point of these lists are lost unless you copy & paste the latest one.

  8. Doubt you'll get a kayak or canoe or whatever it was on top of that one Paul! A very nice purchase though, I hope you can get the bugeye shifted quickly too.

  10. Bet you canny wipe the smile off your face with a sledge hammer eh John! Well done although Gus might try if you call his new car a chelsea tractor again probably!
  11. Stevie - I've also used Ian Grieve and found them to be great, but you could also try Hypertech in Bonnybridge.
  12. Speech - you don't NEED to put them in the oven - hot water and a hairdryer was what was used on mine (not by me, but I watched).
  13. I think they are for holding the engine undertray on - the poppers should be removed then go back in THROUGH the splitter if I remember correctly.
  14. Mibi's aye, i'll text you. Depends if 'the bump' fancies a wee drive - it's host (i.e. SWMBO) hasn't been feeling great this week.
  15. You must have your own money printing press Gus! Need to take a wee nip up & see the Forrester - or are you taking it to the Glasgow/Central meet the morra?
  16. Spotted this car in Glasgow this afternoon, wondered what it was all about and if it was anyone from on here? Also spotted a silver classic going Alexandra Parade, it had 'Street Legal' stickers on the side skirts, and the guy seemed to be looking inside our car every time we were level with each other, but we were in the Mrs Pug 307. Lastly, spotted a black newage STI in the Asda Govan carpark, last 3 digits were HUG. Blobeye, if i remember correctly.
  17. Colzo - powerbulbs are good, they usually do a BOGOF offer. http://www.powerbulbs.co.uk/bogof.asp I changed mine without removing the headlights, but it was a PITA
  18. You sure thats not a photoshop Mark?
  19. It was good to see the original again Andy, the sound was fine when I played it. Seems strange at all the changes that have went on since that was made... Swiggi's black modded bugeye - sold I presume, swiggi not been seen on the forum for a long time Brian WRXMANIA's silver blobeye WRX - sold eastfifetyke's blobeye wagon - crashed if I remember correctly, written off Spince's silver bodykitted bugeye - sold Fee's black Type R - sold Gumball's modded WR Blue STi with the Sarrasin graphics - sold Imy's red classic Fast Scooby's red classic - sold 2559B's RB5 - sold The Ayrshire guy with the white classic (blue santa outfit on) - dunno, but he doesn't post here anymore jcscoob's green classic - doesn't seem to post much nowadays That was only a few of the ones I managed to spot during the Vid. Might not have been the best idea to use the title 'Andy's Flash Vids' though!
  20. Welcome to the forum Surface Get spending.... there's no point being the richest man in the graveyard!
  21. Nice one! I've only seen this car once and it was absolutely mint - you've got yourself a cracker there. Who's is that mockit newage parked next to it though?
  22. Are you sure Gus? You said you were only lending it to me!
