I'm bored!....what do I do?

[SNH]

scooby aint worth that si

imo buddy i wouldnt waiste your money on the scooby they are amazing cars but very very highly strung and expensive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

buy the volvo and put a gt30 on ;-)

advise from an old friend in hiding

I wouldn't pay that for it even tho it's a minter, last I knew £3k was mentioned. It's only done 300 mile in a year.

I like the sound of a 4.2 v8 s4 but I think my hearts set on goin bk to the old skool so maybe a cav turbo will end up on my drive.....who knows??

You should come out of hiding and buy my vrs give you summat to do while your on nights ;-)

[DBP]

When you said going old skool with a cav, my thoughts went to carlton. Just checked the prices and they are like £11k start lol.

Out of interest.... if you decide to break the old girl, could I get first dibs on the drivers seat and the upper and lower struts plus the FARB. Sorry to be pesimistic but I thought I would get my foot in lol.

thanks but i will give that a miss!!

there is a guy that comes around my work with an old school celica with a v8 pro charger running 800bhp it is truly amazing and so so so so fecking loud and its for sale ;-)

p.s when you coming down my way to say hello ??/

[SNH]

Was down your way the other day but it was early doors so thought I'd better not call n wake you

i bought my mk1 vrs and owning my 296bph classic wrx for 5 years and tbh while i miss the 4 wheel drive and turbo kick.i dont miss the fuel bills and running costs and when they do go wrong its mega money ie £200+ for maf.and also i dont seam to get bothered by the racers as much anymore where driving the scooby everybody wanted to have a pop.

i wouldnt get another scooby tbh, as someone has mentioned earlier the S4 is a good car also i always wanted an escort cosworth but just cant justify the price.

[SNH]

Well swmbo definitely wants a New car! For what she uses it for the vrs is to big and thirsty.

Been working out what I'd need to buy/spend if I were to hybrid it

Hybrid turbo £650

Fmic £600-£700

S3 maf £50

S3 injectors £100

S3 fuel pump £60

Map £ £300+

Or £500 for a standard turbo.

Bits I'd get done either way

Bumper grill £20-£50

Rear door lock motor £20-£30

Rear lambda sensor £30

Scratches £100ish

Wheels would be changed so that'd depend on new or used but would be at least £500 give or take.

Then I've got to factor in all the service bits when changing the turbo, I'd do the pick up pipe while I was changing the oil then theres a service to do which would include water pump, cambelt etc.

Is it worth it? I'm not so sure anymore

296 in a wrx must have done a fair few mods to get that figure well done

awesome feeling in the twist with 4x4 and 300bhp nothing can compete but fuel truly shocking and chochlate engine and box

[SNH]

£900 + vat for a k04-001. Think I'll cross that off the list

[missingmyvrs]

you can get it cheaper trust me will get you a deal will call you tomoz

And it dosnt come with an uprated thrust bearing so won't cope with higher boost

Uprated 185bhp engine ~ torsen diff 4wd system ~ Citroen autolevelling pneumatic rear suspension ~ wish i still had the car

Very nice , looks just like mine as mine was white like in that french film "taxi" which made me miss my mi16v badly.

[SNH]

Here's the one I wish I still had :'(

[wiganwayne]

I'm gonna have a look around this weekend and sit and weigh up the pro's and con's. Gonna go see my mate with the RA then call and check out the Volvo.

Always liked pulsar gti r's aswell

;-)

ive owned 2 scoobies and a nissan pulsar gt-i and imo the pulsar was the better of the 3 cars mine was frightfully fast!!! ugly looking thing tho

I think that film is the reason the BoB's love chancing white pugs

I've been tempted to disquise my Octy as a taxi

... nissan pulsar gt-i ... ugly looking thing tho

Nissan Micra cross-bred with a pitbull

Lightweight and 4wd though

Often wondered if anything interesting could be done with a Subaru Justy

Judging by current WRC, small compact lightweight 4x4 works well
