Dogconker

Just been to Halfrauds, still 3 for 2 on Meguiars stuff, just bought a new clay bar, tyre gloss spray, carnauba wax and some ultimate compound. Hopefully later I'll be starring on my rendition if the shining[emoji41] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Would have come only been out at a dog training event with our spaniel. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Used to do sprints at curborough, just up the road from me that. Weather looks better for it tomorrow. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yep, my problem too, tomorrow looks good for cleaning though [emoji41] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I do a lot of work which requires me to go on construction sites, I used to have a civic but kept smacking it on the floor. Decided to get something with ground clearance, looked at all the usual suspects inc the outback and the mitzi, Kia, Qashqai and several others but the XV as the best spec for your buck. Would love an outback but the price tag for new ones is quite a bit higher than the XV. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nice, I'm surprised you ever drive the scoob if you have that as an option Just needs a laminated STI badge

He wasn't too old, so he'd probably spent his life's savings on this years insurance. He'd have been better getting some STi flaps or just leaving it shaved Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I followed a budget subaru today, this will require some explanation. Right so I'm behind a black 51 plate subaru, has no badges on it at all but has an STi badge on the left of the boot had a baked bean can exhaust and colour coded components courtesy of hammerite. Sounded like the engine had some very angry dwarves in it with large hammers who were pretty keen on getting out. But I have my doubts this was in fact an STi. The badge looked a little odd, I pulled up behind him in the McDonald's drive thru and that's when it made sense. The STi badge wasn't an STi badge really it was one he'd obviously printed off on his computer, laminated and then glued to the back of his car. You have no idea how sad I felt after I had stopped laughing. Seriously, may as well have stuck a Ferrari badge on it. Good on him for owning a scoob, but shame for trying to pretend its something better than it is. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'd wait until the results are in, there's always a risk with the predicted weather that I might just end up sat in the garden with a BBQ and a crate of Stella cider. But I start with the right idea. [emoji6] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Gearing up for a big Meguiars day either tomorrow or Sunday, clay bars at the ready [emoji3] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Lol, misunderstanding. I would agree with your comment on the legacy and outback differences. In the last year I've only seen 4 other XVs on the road, as rare as rocking hoss doodoo I'll put my handbag away now[emoji13] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Dunno, but on an XV apparently the only way according to subaru is to either type in the code in the fuse box which is a pain or to lock as described above, does seem a bit ridiculous, but it's true [emoji12] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The XV has the same running gear as the outback and the forester I believe, incidentally it also has the greatest ground clearance, so I wouldn't necessarily agree with your comment. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have the out backs little brother the XV, that's basically the Impreza hatch on steroids. Subaru love their jacked up off-road cars, and so do I[emoji2] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Gambits been driving the pube van, gambits been driving the pube van! Lol I'm gonna paint you a pube van on forza [emoji12] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looks great, I think my clay bars and Meguiars stuff is coming out this weekend, got my tyre black all ready to go [emoji3] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oh well, it's got 5 years warranty so if it breaks it's not my problem, will probably have changed the car by then as need it for my work. Sounds nice though and it makes people look, I think they're surprised when they see it. I think they're expecting something a bit sportier [emoji2] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And you sounded so the expert in your last post, disappointed lol. [emoji41] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just out of curiosity, would you happen to know why my turbo diesel does it, it's standard? I'm assuming it's not got a dump valve and that's why? Not to clued up on turbos Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We like shiny things [emoji12] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I know it's shocking, and that was probably after you'd cleaned it. I'm doing mine and the wife's this weekend, if she'll let me. (Doing mine anyway [emoji3]). Hate to think what my cost will look like Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not quite as loud as that though [emoji2] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I hope not, my diesel turbo does it, sorry, you're probably cussing me now [emoji2] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I spotted the sarcasm, my IQ is too high to watch football, as I pronounce England not Engerland. That should start the thread going [emoji48] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
