Light blue scoob with scooby on the back seen several times tonight. P reg driven by young lad who looks about 10 years old. I'll try to look in the car one day to see if he has got cushions on the seat so that he can see out of the windscreen. Looks like a turbo but he set off on Elliott Street making plenty of noise but yet it didn't set of quickly at all.
Does anyone know him and more importantly how can he afford the petrol driving around all night.

think I saw this guy yesterday, sure it isnt a turbo, as I couldnt see any bonnet vents. He does have a scoop on it though, but when I seen him he was just trundling (nice word that - trundling) along.

Green Wagon heading up Princess Ave this morning about 8.45... gave a wave, but as usual got no response.

I think my Scooby has some kind of stealth device and to other drivers it looks like a fiesta or something

It is probably just personal. You'll just have to accept that you may not be worth a wave

Ah... the light blue one. Sounds the part when driven normally... but when flooring it, doesn't sound too pleasent at all.

He's floored it twice going past my house recently down the long stretch on Tyldesley road. As you said, the car was barely going anywhere!

I've seen it parked up near the blue R-Reg Scoob Sport with the STI rear lights etc... up Tyldesley near the clinic/gym.

Oh... and I saw it on Mcdonalds car park about a week ago, amongst the other ****e.

I'mmmmm lovvvvvvvvvvi'n it.......... Ho hummm....

How can you say that coming from Dewsbury. I've never known anything else up there. I've spent many any 80 mins freezing my n*ts of and getting soaked up there. But yes it does rain now and again. Thought that Rhinos would have put a lot more past Leigh by the way. Did you send a full team.?

muggins here was downstairs with my little pup all night as it kept coming upstairs. Don't mind that, but when it keeps running round the bedroom and it is laminate flooring it gets a bit irratating so I took it downstairs and slept on the couch and put her in her basket!!

Calorgaz, hope all goes well at the hospital , however, why not induce her yourself, put her in the car and go for a full throttle run, lift off and re apply throttle again to get it poppin and bangin. That'll do the job. Have plenty of towels at the ready though.

Brilliant idea, although one small flaw. She can't fit in the bucket seats

She will be on her way to hospital soon for a check up, so I may be doing the full throttle run myself !

yep rain is on the cards. I know that as I laid some concrete last night in my back garden, just before the rain started and before the temps dropped to something ridiculous. I need to lay more tonight so rain is a definate goer.

If your on princess ave then tonight about 17:10 to 17:20 I will give you a wave whilst your feeling left out!

On another note C minor, I saw a dark green classic (cant remember if it was today or yesterday) on manchester road nr the roundabout nr the bull.
No wave though.

The guy in the light blue P reg is only 17 or so it's only a 1.6 that's how he affords petrol.... his brother has the R reg sport that park on the car park opposite the tyre place in tyldesley...

Mines back on the road Green estate STI you'll definitely notice it if you see me - red grill and more importantly roof vent

Are there any other estates on here in Tyldesley area?

Cheers

Are you just off Common Lane. If so I have seen the wagon quite a few times. These count as spots according to jaytc, and calorgaz would be made up as well. As far as the estates go around here there are a few but not one has ever waved except for the chemist on Elliott Street.
Will look out for you on our travels. We're the dark blue classic with half a decal set fitted (Like all the rest of the jobs in the house).
Why a red grille? Is this a Tyldesley thing.?

That will explain the total influx of power it has then, lol.

Does anybody here go to the Mascrat manor meet on the 2nd Monday of every month? It's a Jap performance car meet in Cheshire. It's on this coming Monday... but not too sure if I should go yet.

common lane is that sort of off the one way system leaving tyldesley?
If so I saw the green wagon parked up about 7 ish this morning.
A lad at work has just got an imprezza and he has the hard badges (if you know what I mean on the car) may get some myself look quite snazzy.

Ive either had a bad batch of fuel recently or my engine is gonna pop

is that in woolston just off the motorway? If it is I thought that they had stopped that, I know a while back I think a car was involved in an accident on the m6, it was basically someone who had been to a meet doing silly things on the motorway

No not yet. Still waiting for the sample colour being posted. We've both finished work now though for our retirement so the Ka and the scoob will be being sold in the near future. If you know anyone who's after a small car let me know. KA2 12mths mot, 6mths tax, 19500 miles 2001 Y Plate £2500.

How's the puppy going on. Is it using newspaper yet or is your girlfriend still dodging the raised carpet.

Started rewiring the house today so that other tradesman can get in on Monday. Always leave things till last minute. Not used to hard graft anymore.
Only wired downstairs today which nearly killed me. I'd forgot that I could still sweat.
