I'm returning to the fold! Used to have a Scooby, ran it for 2 years and loved it, was going to get a P1 but was turned to the dark side

This one has only 18,000 miles on the clock and a few nice extras like the HKS hard pipe induction, the decat pipe, a super drager exhaust with a stupidly large chrome bazooka type rear pipe and it's also fitted with a very loud dump valve!
I now sound like a Nova/Rover 200 driver

My UK Spec Scooby had 210 BHP this has 276 BHP (plus about 30 for the mods) so it's a different beast, the engine feels more like the Skyline than the Scooby but the handling is much more precise.........al this from driving it for about 90 minutes this morning!

Looking forward to driving it home tonight

I bought an Evo 8 after selling my Vette (still kicking myself at least twice daily). Very nice cars but I sold it after a month as I thought it was boring to drive, it needed no effort to drive as the car drove you. I'm interested to see how you get on with it...

Still miss my Vette
