Hi
I am a member of the committee on this great site.
I joined up with SIDC and SWS way back in 2001

My name is Robert Iles but I only answer to the name Bob. I get called Robert when I am in trouble with mother or dragon.
I am shacked up with the dragon (Trish) and we have two girls and a boy. Emma, Lara and Michael. The girls have left the nest but Mike who is 18 will not take the plunge.
Lara has now moved back in with her son Finlea.

I became interested in Scoobs many years ago and purchased a MY98 UK car in Reddish/Blue. Had the Prodrive Performance Pack fitted but managed to get my money back after I found the PPP on the MY98’s gave no extra power. I soon found alternatives and had a Powerengineering phase 1 chip that was mapped by PE. This car had 283 bhp and 276 ft/lbs Torque. This was a very fast car and was named “Old Bluey” by my Scoob friends.

In 1999 2000 I traded this for the MY99 (What a mistake) this car was known as “The hesitating bag of sh1t”. I had to have a link ECU fitted to get rid of the hesitation. Then exhaust and usual mods

In 2000 or 2001 I traded this for the P1 nice car but no more powerful than the two previous Scoobs I had owned. I only kept this for 5 months and traded it back in to the dealers.


Then purchased an Outback H6 very nice car, not as fast as Scoobs but soft, quiet and comfortable.
Had this for about a year then moved on to 200sx’s after a year or two I yearned for another Scoob. I had always kept up on the forums and knew what was about when the next car came up for sale.

Impreza WRX STi 5 Type R WRC Limited I modded this to
382.2 BHP 380 ft/lbs Torque

A few months ago I traded the Type R in for a WR1
