Default New 'Klingon' scoob?

The new Vauxhall Astra looking scoob must have one of these

Cloaking device - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

because I travel 130 miles a day to work and back and haven't seen one yet - not even the boggo standard version Where the hell are they

100 miles per day and me neither.

Rarer than a blue steak, which probably ain't a bad thing.

I've never seen one on the road either, in any trim. I did see a red Evo X yesterday though, the first one of those I've spotted.

They'd sell more if you could get a free Tribble with every car

Although they are a bugger to house train




Please god somebody else know what I'm on about

Yes mate I'm feeling fine thanks , But I'll feel better still once they bring out the pro drive pack for our new STi .

Mind you it already has a pro drive sticker on the back which must be worth at least 50 extra bhp .

Well I had my mid life crisis by building my 517 bhp Pulsar Gti-R .

We have the optional lip spoiler and 18" wheels does that count as extra chav points ? .

I draw the line at the compulsory 555 jacket and pink t-shirt though .

I used to be 44, or so I'm told. I can't remember back that far. However, I do own a MY08 Sti. This is my 4th scoob on the trot and by far the best.

Here you go fella.

It's taken me 7 years to get it to this state of tune, With out trying sound like I'm bragging it's bloody fast even beating a lot of the bikes I've come across and all of the cars including a few scoobys (sorry) lol.


First run in map results - GTIROC

Nissan : Highly modified 517 BHP dyno proven Pulsar!

I'm not looking to tune our new STi to anything like the pulsar, I'll be happy with the prodrive upgrades when they come available.

I'll have a read of them now. Seeing as work is quiet.

I very nearly bought another one, with ideas as a project car.
