Lucky - How much longer........
 

...have we got to wait for you to get another scoob.

It's all gone very quiet !!!!!!

I think you need to give us your budget and requirements and we can all help a little. I've lost track as to whether your after a Blob or a Classic.

Be good to have you back ;)

I think he's after a classic.He heard me go past his office today and sent me a text to say how much he's missing having a Scoob.

Perhaps we should arrange a massive drive by :lol:

Hear hear, it's long over due steve:cath:

:agreed:

come on steve treat yourself for christmas

Well, its very touching to know I'm missed :lol:

Life aint the same without one. What with doing stuff to the house, work and christmas coming up, I decided to look again after christmas, although I do look on PH, Ebay and autotrader every day!!.

I do fancy a classic as I've not had one, but saying that, if a clean blob came up at the right money I would be tempted. One thing's for sure though, I will be back in one sooner rather than later.

Been trying to get to some meets as well, but they seem to be clashing with other stuff (mainly work) :-(

Did think about looking at this as its reasonable money and close to me

front lights would have to go though i think.


and this:

do like the second one mate the steel blue one bit to chav for you

2nd one steve:ok:

Don't let them rush you into a hasty decision, Steve. You know you want a nice JDM blob really. Best to go for something limited edition too ;)

I would never buy a fresh import.
Come with no history and if it does it may be false.
Would rather one that's been in the country a couple of years with good enthusiast service history and documentation.

Grey one looks well looked after for a 1994 model, although dash/interior will feel dated.
A good base to start and has been in same hands for 8 yrs.

Agree with Scott... I'm on the lookout for a clean classic myself, but there's a lot of crap out there

Yeah, quite like it. BC coilovers on it, plus the brakes/wheels are a bonus. Easy to change front & rear lights back to standard (and make a bit of profit back via ebay). Low mileage for a '94 car too.

All in for £3k isn't bad...

What's up with the front lights on the grey one?
Looks a good buy that car :doubleup:

Grey one for me and nothing wrong with the lights imo :wink:

mmm... was thinking the same really. Something will crop up.

A JDM Blob is also on the short list, but its whether I want to spend the money. Very tempting tho!

Thats where I am with it. It wont tie up all of my money and will be great to drag out of the garage at weekend, and finally be able to go to meets in a scoob again! Having said that, I would prefer a lat classic with updated interior and front etc, but its finding a good clean one. As Anger said, there is an incredible amount of junk out there, but I suppose they are now 15 odd years old, so finding a good one is more difficult.

Oddly this looks cheap as chips and very original for the money

http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classifi...07lh?logcode=p

May well look at this. Bit of wagon fun for £1500.

V.nice - looks all original too!

You have to be blind if you can't see that dent in the rear drivers quarter ;)

Thats what I thought Keith, and to be honest, original is what I want, so I can put my own mark on it. Not sure how easy these are to take up to better power levels, but I am sure a few on here can help with that ;-)

Yes James, they have made it clear on the ad, which is fine. I suspect it would need a few bits doing, not least colour coding the skirts, but I have a good mate who does all that, so not a problem.

Not cheap to repair a dent like that

if the worst came to the worst I could just set about the other side so it matches :lol:

I feel ya pain steve who will get another one first you or me?????

My short list also

a jdm blob sti
wr1
or another p1
or another widetrack blob sti

cant make me bloody mind up

or one of those evo things:whistle::whistle:

How about this, a euro scoob very rare apparently.

http://classifieds.pistonheads.com/c...pe-euro/948105

It will have to a WR1 then :lol:

And there was me thinking you couldn't make a Bugeye any F---ing uglier :

http://img.pistonheads.com.s3-eu-wes...-S194908-1.jpg

That is exactly the same mate

05 Blob STI
P1/type r
WR1 but they are still holding their money well
or alternatively just get a 2/3k classic for short term and see how it feels

Just cant seem to make up my mind, so I think I am just waiting for something to jump out at me.

mmm........ what can you say really. :doh:

jesus that bugeye offends my eyes!! what on earth is that all about?

I thought you would like it.. :whistle: :lol:

Cayenne front bumper FTW :grin:

much more like it

http://i393.photobucket.com/albums/p...Impreza_07.jpg

mmmmm thought you might say that

yep i dont wanna buy one and then go **** i should have bought that instead lol plus your old afterburner exhaust has had enough time in my loft needs to come out and rumble once again

Yup !!

I might have to buy it back if you dont hurry up either :lol::lol:

That wagon would be ok for £1k or there abouts Lucky. :santawave:

lol

Ha ha - I saw that on PH today. You have to admire him for doing it though!

:wed:One of my customers cars, I've got it in next week for a few bits.

well, I've made a decision.

Its going to be a Blob 03 - 05 STI. I need to find one as original as poss, so I can do what I want with it. Really fancy another WR Blue one. My old WRX was WR and I loved it. Loved the black too, but its just too much maintenance for someone fussy!!. Also, as the car wont be used for work it can be as lairy and noisy as I like!!!! I feel a blitz nur spec coming on!!

mmm... this looks nice:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Subaru-Imp...item4d0784f320

What is it with you and cars with dings on there rear quarters ;)

:lol::lol::lol:

Well I am famous for rear bumpers. My Hawk had 3 of them over its time. Nothing to do with me I might add!.

http://bbs.scoobynet.com/subaru-444/...-for-sale.html ?

Looks well looked after, although its a bit of a trek to get it though. Might be worth it for an enthusiast owned car though?

Very honest ad that

dose look nice mate :doubleup: be nice to see you back in one soon mate.

How about this 1.


http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2004-SUBAR...90786525148%26

Nice low mileage example there

:agreed: :five:

Selling within 1 month of buying though !!!!!!!!
Yeh I know that's 3 weeks longer then Rob keeps a car, but rings alarm bells with me.

He probably got fed up with people thinking he was gay because of the colour. Not that I would ever think that ;)

He has just found out his Mrs is pregnant, so is defo not gay.

We have a guy at work who has kidds & is defo a shirt lifter:asskiss:

Talking about yourself again Nige.... I fooking knew it

Accidents happen !

Very nice, but a bit over what I want to spend really. ideally between 6/7k.

looks a nice one steve??

http://classifieds.pistonheads.com/c...uk-2004/952548

http://classifieds.pistonheads.com/c...uk-2003/903320

one for steve
 

come on mate you know you wanna !!


http://bbs.scoobynet.com/subaru-444/...eg-2001-a.html

Can't be many 1 owner classics around like that anymore....

Looks tidy : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1999-T-REG...item1e74d424dc

Would need more info on engine spec as FMIC fitted.

Looks good apart from newage scoop which always looks :wa:on a classic

Ive been looking at that scooby for a while now for the wife as she likes driving mine when im not cleaning it or driving it

just found a few classics
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2000-SUBAR...item3a7ccb0d50

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Subaru-Imp...item232647b52b

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/97-SUBARU-...item4d07cb909a

84,000 is classed as very low miles ?
car may be fine but bloody hell the advert wording is almost as good as one of Nige's.

Cheers chaps. A couple of nice looking ones there. Was tempted to look at the clean silver classic with one owner, and the silver type r looks nice, but still thinking along the lines of a blob. Getting xmas out of the way, then its top of the list.

i recommend you jump back into and try a classic before deciding on a blob.
For me it was one of the best moves i made.
As its also a toy im not worried one bit that the interior is a little dated compared to the later models but the classic seats are oh so much better for those with a slimmer figure like us ;)

Ah, but bugeye (and blob a bit less so) seats were good too, it was the hawk seats that went all US wideboy ;)

Sti 7 seats are fine sti 8 are where they went wideboy as i had a set in the classic briefly

Bug Sti have the better seats by far. Hawk are big but Fugly is real wide boy. :drive:

STI seats are spot on.

Lucky any time you want a ride in a proper scoob just let me know..:doubleup::grin:

sweet best i get a wideboy seated hawkeye then

Like I said above the Classic seats are better for us slimmer types :grin:

Nice Genuine P1 WR spec (with all the right options added)
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/subaru-imp...item337e8554e8

I'm loving my rawer feeling classic compared to my old blob wagon, but I still miss it.

Agreed the seats in the classic sti are ten times better, you sit in them rather than on them.

I had a set of STI 8 seats and went back to 2002 (v7) WRX seats as the v8s were too wide and unsupportive.

what about this beauty steve lol!!!

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/subaru-imp...item3ccd79596f

steve are the seats deffo wider in the hawk than the blob then(as being of the larger variety), i remember trying the bugeye seats and they was too small for me but the sti 8 seats were fine, but sure when i tried a hawk (was a wrx model though),if i remember they felt really tiny are the sti seats deffo wider then????

They got wider in each shape update. Bugeye were best for the lanky folks (me included, although maybe not after Christmas! ;)), blob got a bit wider and hawkeye were wider again. The hawk sti's i've sat in are less supportive on the sides, don't hold you as well in the corners imo.

Not sure why you found a hawk with narrow seats? Pretty sure there was no different in hawk seat design between wrx/sti other than colour, but someone might be able to correct me on that?

Nice! :rofl:

Bet that was once a tidy import wagon under there, some people eh :doh:

cheers for reply steve, i will have to check them out again this was a few years ago i tried out a hawk just sure i remember it generally not feeling as big inside including seats as my blob at the time

I will defo look at and try a couple of classics as well as blobs. Really like the look of the p1 as well. Can't wait to get out and get one sorted now. :drive:

Yes! That's the ticket!!!!

I always found the hawks seats unsupportive and on several occasions nearly changed them. I found the blob seats much better.

Bugeye Sti seats were fantastic (for std seats) much better than the Hawk. Blobs not sure as never had one. Fugly seats are ****e to! :drive:

http://bbs.scoobynet.com/subaru-444/...pe-uk-ppp.html

Only in London and under 50k on the clock :)

vic said you can have her wagon for 8k but we ant cleaning it for that :whistle:

Matt23 might be selling his and it's mint:five:

Just seen that thread. I will send him a pm. :ok:

Looks nice but I am struggling with 8k for a 2003 car. :|

Not even a car wash?? :polish::lol:

nope the best your get is ill leave it out in the rain and look at it a bit

Good spec P1 (with the usual rust) http://bbs.scoobynet.com/subaru-444/...50-1000-a.html

Mr JRicer also looks interested ;)

This looks pretty good.

http://classifieds.pistonheads.com/c...-sti-v5/970407

Looks ok apart from wheels look :vom:

If my contract doesn't get renewed or I can't find another job in Feb I may be able to do you a deal on a nice, red, low mileage classic :-(

Shane

Yup, the wheels would have to go.

Well, for your sake mate, I hope you can get something sorted. Looks nice and clean that one.
