Default Scooby Knockers?

Why is this forum infested with so many Scooby Knockers?? Virtually every thread seems to be hijacked by some negative b'stard whingeing and moaning about something or other to do with Scoobys. There's nothing to beat 'em for the money in my opinion. Any car that's been around for over a decade and subject to any number of (sometimes questionable) modifications is going to have 'issues'. I read this forum before buying mine and thankfully ignored most of the negative ****e. New WRX300 for £19,000, 0-60mph in under 5 seconds - total bargain. The car is great - pay the insurance, fuel up and kindly shut up.

Alot of knockers are people who cannot drive, and blame thier poor perfomance on the car. Just happens to be a Subaru this time.
I'm totally happy and a great driver

It wouldn't be scoobynet without a pedantic ***** saying how this is wrong, or this is crap etc.

Place thrives on holier than thou know it alls who love to shoot anyone down in a blaze of negativity, regardless of subject




Now if you excuse me, I need to paint my pot

Would you believe it’s actually been a lot better recently. Knocking Scoobies has become a Scoobynet speciality, I don't know of any other car forums where they knock the target car so much.

Probably the price we pay for being so successful

There'd be nothing worse than a forum full of people who worship scoobs and just go on about how good they are and how they can beat anything else on the road.

I dont think theres many 'scooby knockers' - its just people being realistic, and maybe also some owners on here being unwilling to accept that some hot/warm hatches can keep up with a scoob on a country road and unwilling to accept that scoobs are now (unfortunately ) seem as chav mobiles.

I don't knock them, I like them, BUT, that is not my idea of a bargain. You could buy the right second hand car, tune it and have at least an 11sec 1/4 car for that money. If however you want dealer support, then yes, new maybe the way to go, but I'd never do it.
