At least A toy. Since I really like fishing and I live on an island I decided I need a better fishing boat, so I got this one:

And while I'm at it I might as well get a car that can tow my boat trailer, so I just made an offer on a Blobeye Scooby. Mind you, it looks like an STI but it's actually just a WRX. If I get it I'll sell the Lex and use the Impreza as my daily driver.

When you said new toys, I was expecting something smaller scale than those! haha

Very nice though, I'll be watching how the mods go with the Scooby :thumbup1:

Scooby looks clean. Bet you'll be sad to sell the Lexus.

Haha! Well, I've been a bit bored lately :tongue_smilie:

I probably won't do much with it I think. Maybe lower it slightly and get a nice set of rims. The first thing I'm gonna do if I get it though is to paint the headlight inserts black.

It holds a bit of sentimental value as the Lex has provided me with a hobby for the last five years and apart from a sticking caliper a few years back it has never let me down, even though it's got almost 120k miles on the clock.

On the other hand, it's pretty darn boring for the amount of fuel it consumes :tongue_smilie:

Also, I've sold all exterior modifications I've done on the Lex. From the outside it now looks completely stock, only a little bit lower.

Unfortunately you can't do that in Sweden unless you're prepared to do an engine swap before the MOT every year :tongue_smilie:

I just love the sound of the boxer engine in the Scooby. Nothing with that small displacement can beat that lovely purr.

thats a shame didnt realise you had reurned the lex to standard, the scoob will serve you well especially as its the right colour, boat would look good in purple

He rejected my offer but I'm sure he won't get the money he's asking for it so I'll just try again in a week or maybe two Smile
