Anyone interested in a swop??

[POC]

Hi guys, im interested in getting into a 5.0 griff (have previously, albeit breifly owned a 5.0 chimp).... I was wondering if anyone would be interested in trading for my MY99 Subaru Impreza STi Version 5?

Heres a quick pic, full (large!) spec on application

you must be kiddin' me!

Go on Gerjo, you know you want to!

PS You will have to remember the steering wheel and pedals will be on the right...

Why's the bonnet a different colour? Has it been in crash?

[Stig]

Carbon fibre unless I'm mistaken.

[900T-R]

Naah, his carbon fibre bonnet was so darn expensive that he couldn't afford to have it painted yet...

OK, OK, no harm intended here, just a gentle ribbing, actually it's a top car for what it is, wouldn't swap it with a Griff if I had one but would not mind it standing next to it in my garage either...

[POC]

Pah! you boys have no taste

Yeah its carbon fibre, sacrilege to paint such a good looking peice of kit

[tvr4ever]

Love to have one of them for an everyday car. Unfortunatly i can't afford one. I'll keep the Griffith for those special moments.

Thus proving my point

[burriana500]

I'd love to...

have a go in one of those scoobys just for the handling experience, but swap it for the Griff?..



you're kidding, right?



Sorry - great car, but...

[JoolzB]

Nah, don't get me wrong. When I got rid of my last TVR I was going to get something that was a tad more practical. I had a look at scooby's, Audi TT, BMWs, VWs, mercs and tried to convince myself that's what I wanted. It didn't work and now I've got meself another one.

Give him a break guys. He's asked a reasonable question. No need to tear him apart ......

Speaking as a Griff and Scooby owner .... POC don't rise to the ragging m8.

Also met with BOC (POC's brother), and am aware of POC's antics on Scoobynet...

There's nothing strange about his request, I beleive he justs like experiencing lots of types of cars.

I don't think they are Nick - it's all been in pretty good humour ... not to mention pretty damn tame for this lot

[joolzb]

Sorry Nick, won't happen again. Was only having a bit of a laugh. Just one final remark though, why spend all that money on a bonnet and then not pay out a little extra for a a proper bonnet catch.

[BogBeast]

Hmm...

Would be a change tho....

[tj500]

Love my Scooby, never let me down once (not even slightly) in over 75,000 km, always oodles of fun, can't imagine a better combo of adrenaline/fun & everyday practicality. You know what you're getting & expectations are always reliably met.

The Griff though...even mentioning her in the same sentence seems somehow sacrilegious...she throws little tantrums sometimes & needs generous helpings of TLC & constant reassurance that she's loved and cherished...BUT...she's beauty on wheels, raucous, raw, pure...there's simply no other feeling like that frisson of excitement and anticipation you get when clambering in for a high-speed blast. Expectations are always hugely surpassed & even with all her quirks, you're left slack-jawed at the sheer magnificence of the thing...

No comparison, in my book
