Chris - after reading of your Scoobie bargain I nearly fell for a 1:1 today!

It was at Minehead. Stuart and I had a day out. A small garage in Minehead that sells nice used cars had an X reg Scoobie - the rally lookalike but a wagon version - in silver for ?4995. I really fancied it but decided I couldn't have it...a lot of machine for not a lot of cash though!

John, it is always nice to dream and AutoArt do a ...

1:43rd 2001 Subaru Impreza wagon STi ...... in silver! Model number 58632. This model is also available in blue and white. So just in case you want a momento of the day in miniature ...... it's out there as they say! I am hoping to find one of these also for ?2.99! It will be company for the one I already have. AutoArt do quiet a range of this vehicle including the 22B, in met. blue only, and 2003 + 2006 specs of the WRX STi; in blue, white and black.

Glad you had a great day out.

Cheers Chris

Have a look on Ebay Chris - there's an interesting early Subaru on there at the moment.

I'm still thinking about that one I saw today. I haven't looked at another modern car for a few years as the old Focus is still serving me well. The '57 Minx would have to go for me to get a Scoobie and there's no way I'd let the Minx go! I think the 1:43 route is probably the safest option.
