Saw the worst Scooby mod in my life on the A40 near Hanger Lane yesterday.

MY98 4 door in silver which had been unsympathetically vandalised with:

Silver pimp tints
Roof scoop
Second spoiler starting half way up the rear window reaching roof level, which gave the car a particularly stylish Tesco trolley look.
Two pink STi vinyl sticker on the boot, which weren't even the proper STi logo
And the piece de resistance. Two pink stripes running from the front of the bonnet to the back of the car, over the roof.

Fast and Furious? More like Heath and Robinson.

Anyone owning up? Thought not.

Do you think anyone in their right mind is going to own up to that one
Maybe he is trying to get it ready for one of Clarkson's Top 10

No-one in their right mind's going to own up, but then there'd have to be something come adrift in the attic to consider doing it in the first place.

Words cannot convey how bad it was. Oh, and they can't be going for Clarkson's top ten - no additional chrome buckets posing as exhausts were fitted. Although I'm sure it's merely a question of time...

The question still remains though..Did you wave at him??

Or did you slink down into your seat and pretend that you never even saw him...

It's a shame my camera was in the boot as my navigator ie the missus could've snapped it.

Wave, Tony? You must be kidding - it made me wish I was driving an Evo

hmmm yeah there are a few out there that do lower the class of owing a scooby.
Take for instance the other day was pulling out of Macdonalds...
The guy let me out he had a silver scoob etc thought very nice man but got to the roundabout and he decides to cut up just about everyone including myself on the roundabout... people were tooting and flashing him, I just thought what a ****. I was actually ashamed to be driving my scooby then

So just goes to show there are a few ***** out there

What car in Preston ?
Do you mean the dark green classic with gold wheels and the twin gold "Viper stripes" or the silver Neon with the racing spoiler and black racing stripes ?
Somebody in Preston is making a fortune !! out of bad taste.
PS Neither is me !
