Well I managed to sell the ep3 for a very cheap price...

And a chap from work was selling his scooby at a very reasonable price so I took it for a test drive and snapped it up!

Currently running 320bhp and 300+ lbs/ft....

Still undecided on the wheels... might look at either getting some ROTAs or some prodrive alloys but the gold ones will do for now!

Other than that I'm thinking light-medium tints all the way around and upgrading the stereo!

Thanks for looking!
 
Oh forgot to mention the spec...

Miltek sports exhaust / sports cat / balanced headers / turbo blanket.

ECUTek remaps (November 2007 latest) + rolling road graphic proof (320 bhp).

Good lord that's a good spec. Lovely looking motor though, I'd hate to think what the mpg is like.
 
Awsome stuff. I have one similar. Just waiting to find out if its a write off after a girl drove into the back of it whilst waiting waiting at some traffic lights :(
 
Nice car man. Just one thing. Isn't it a Hawkeye version. The blob eye is the round ugly headlamps or am I confused(I usually am) :lol:

Click to expand...

Blob eye is correct. You're thinking bug eye. Hawk eye is the MY07
 
I do love a Scooby, I'm not sure about the CF intakes on the front bumper though.

I don't envy the £400 road tax :lol:
 
Yup it's a blob eye - one of the best looking IMO!

Yea averaging 21 mpg atm and I've really noticed it in comparison to the ep3!!

Tax is the same as the ep3!?
 
Would just like to clarify that I was agreeing with Ed about the scoops, no idea what he was on about thinking it was £400 RFL....duh!


:lol:
 
Cheers for the comments guys...

It's a completely different animal to the ep3, the grip off the line and in the bends is second to none - and I'm loving booooooooost! But that's not to say I don't miss the vtec crossover and the high revving (or 30 mpg)!

I've just signed up for a group buy on a front splitter as they look a hell of a lot better with one on!

Also should be doing a track day for my 25th on the 1st of December :)
