  1. I'm an ex Subaru owner and scoobynet member. Many moons ago I owned a 2002 bug eye wrx which was succeeded by a 2003 blob eye STi PPP both in WR blue. Cracking cars back then.
  2. Which is exactly why I've sold my car. As a home worker going forward I have no need for it, we have two other cars in the household I can use if needed. Cash put aside ready for another car if I ever need one, wouldn't dream of buying at the moment with the artificially high prices.
  3. Don't see why not if they can source one. Will cost you big though, possibly more than if it were spec'd from new.
  4. I sold an Audi TT to them last night. Got £800 less than what I paid for it 19 months ago at a main dealer, a deal I couldn't refuse. Whole process only took around 20 mins.
  5. Yeah I think he kept the Yaris all of ten minutes before flipping it.
  6. No idea what it costs and tbh from what I've seen so far it's not that much different to stock. The thing with the YouTubers is apart from a couple ie TR hamza most don't really thrash the cars, they spend more time posing on busy London streets hitting the dizzy heights of 20mph.
  7. I've seen them use battery powered grinders, off in no time, very lucrative for the to$$ers apparently.
  8. https://youtu.be/xyfCrf3lmGw apologise for any irritation he may cause 😁

    Dyno run

    20 over VW published figures, looked more on the drag runs but not bad.

    Dyno run

    iI want to see a mk8 v mk7 run to see how much the mk8 has progressed.
  11. Heads up for those curious about the mk8 power, Archie Hamilton is putting his dyno run on YouTube tonight. Should be interesting to see the figures after the drag runs.
  12. I'd be surprised if it's over spray, bit tricky painting a caliper with the wheel on?
  13. On the assumption they wont be cheap as very little is at a main dealer, I think i'd rather pay the postage 😀
  14. Purchase elsewhere and leave them an online review of your experience. If they want the negativity and loss of a new customer over 40 quid let them crack on.
  15. Exactly. After watching the Archie Hamilton drag runs the mk8 looks like the real deal out of the box anyway.
