Just a quick thread, to see how many BB users are based around the Manchester area ? There seems to be a lot of people from darn sarf', but the North-West doesn't seem that well represented ?

To start the ball rolling, mines a MY94 STI 5 door silver, plate ANZ ???. Anybody ?

I do the same route each day (but onto Rochdale from Hasy), though not in a Scoob as yet - Green Primera (not through choice) if you see me waving and think "What the F?"

I did used to see your car at your place of work though I think - I used to work near Haslingden. Obviously I wont post where on here but if it is your RB5, you also work with someone who has a red K-Reg MR2 and green Seat?

If any one see's me "pottering" around south Manchester/airport area in a blue MY'00 standard turbo, it ain't 'cos I wanna, it's 'cos her majesties law enforcement agency have taken a dislike to my driving style in the past year, and I'm on my "last chance!!"

Feel free to flash, wave, blast past or moonie through the back window. Whatever. I'll recipricate.

I too have noticed the grumpy nature of most scoob drivers round here. Lets change that.

Still not as bad as over the hills, they're a right ol' grumpy lot over there!!

PS anyone lay claim to an silver Evo6 and silver Elise in the Sale area?

Hi H !

You'll have to e-mail me with details of where you are - sounds like I'm a stone's throw away from you ! Mines a STI I as well, 5 door, so it would be good to compare notes.

Oh yes and W.Yorks too!

I generally wave or flash.

Sport owners what is it with you? So what if I do have two heads?

And women in Scoobs generally?
They just don't get it do they?

Question

BarryK,

My better half compared this BB to some program we saw awhile ago about this caravan geek who knew all the models, spec etc. of virtually every caravan in England ! He used to comment to his wife as they drove down the road about the pro/cons of various caravans they saw.

Can't imagine what she meant... !

Got proper lost in Alderly Edge this time. The new road layouts are mad, but ooooh soo easy when you finally get it right!
