Scooby Dachsy Doo

Bit bored tonight so thought I'd pop up Portsdown Hill if anyone else fancies a viewpoint Scooby Invasion. I'll probably be getting there between 8 & 8:30

Just seen this on Etsy. Looks like ribs lol... https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/204498504/custom-colors-subie-front-ends?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=subaru&ref=sc_gallery-1-2&sts=1&listing_id=204498504&listing_slug=custom-colors-subie-front-ends&plkey=ca410ba463b9bcf58b7cb3d0cd2b4cac0f475ef2%3A204498504

According to my manual (although a newer shape and most boxers the same) mines a 2.5 and it says to use premium fuel. But I do occasional mix it when I need a bit extra fuel so it doesn't cost as much to put more in. I'm going to be getting a Terraclean done on mine soon which will clear the carbon out of the system and will improve running & MPG's.

Yeah, When I called Proven Subaru he even thought mine would be HID but he did a check and said I did have the led ones. Would cost me about 600 per headlight to replace.

Well after wasting money buying the new bulbs I bought are actually for the high beam. The dipped beam bulbs are a sealed LED unit on the 2014+ Models so I would have to replace the whole headlight unit. What a rip off!!!

Sorted. I was actually advised to use these ones. The ones I put up initially are only a whiter light but these ones produce a brighter light.

Anyone tried these from Halfords or know if any good. Or could you recommend some ultra bright bulbs that doesn't involve a full halogen kit?

www.scoobyworld.co.uk do alot of parts for the older pre 2014 models. Also try www.scoobyparts.com. Both UK based.

Some of them trying for the record for barrel rolls

😔 Oh Those Poor Scoobys 😬

Just found this on YouTube lol...

Put a new HKS SSQV 4 Blow Off Valve on mine today

Nice

Hi Hubert, welcome.

Gave mine a bath today to get rid of the first wave of road salting. Had to post on YouTube for viewing.

Sorry just realised I posted in wrong section

Just seen this in YT. I wonder if the parts shown would fit the 2014-2019 models.

Now you've said that it does. I ddin't pay too much attention. Just saw shape of the rear lights and thought it was a scooby lol.

Lookin nice. Don't forget the cardinal rule... always treat Mistress Scooby better than the mrs. I've spent more on mine than I have the Mrs in 19 years🤣

Came across this in the Portsmouth News. Anyone know this one??? ..... https://www.portsmouth.co.uk/news/people/coastguard-called-out-to-rescue-car-from-langstone-harbour-3474321

Vinyl work all complete now. Got them done by South Coast Wrapping in Havant if anyone in the area looking to get some work done. https://southcoastwrapping.com/ Great guy & good rates. Knows his stuff. The emblem badges were done by Dash Dynamics https://www.dashdynamics.co.uk/ .

Thanks Jay I'll try them

Cheers Jay

As I don't have access to social media could anyone let me know if any meets are coming up at any time. Whether it's just us Scoobs or mixed I'm not fussed. Willing to travel a bit (maybe a 40 mile radius) from Portsmouth area. Would be nice to get out and meet some people as I'm going to be grounded for a little while soon. Not because I've been naughty & upset the Mrs by getting a tasty new stainless exhaust 😆 but because I have got shoulder surgery coming soon and won't be able to drive my precious for 6 weeks at least 😭. Had pre-op already so just waiting a call for the date. Thanks guys & gals.

Probably doesn't help much but you can get the MOT history here for the car. https://www.gov.uk/check-mot-history You may get more info from an HPI check but other than slipping a willing helpful traffic officer a crispy 50 I don't think you'll have much luck. I was fortunate enough to get complete history of mine with all the paperwork. Even the sale copy was in there.
