Unhappy

LOL at Andy

I have to be honest here, I was involved in a bit of an incident. Enough to say I have had enough of Scooby's for now, maybe for good.

I now have a 1.6 307 SW (Family Car seven seats etc..) and boy is it slow

The incident in question scared the **** out of me and I was really lucky, I have a family to support two boys and one on the way, I will end up dead in Andy's car, it is so powerful, time to move on.

I would say Andy's car was by far the fastest thing I have ever driven it is superb.

Oi Chrome ! I'll have you know the car had a full compliment of standard seats for TOTB2, even had carpets, soundproofing, door trims an all that other std heavy stuff !

If there had been some competition from the other scoobs on the day I may have thought about lightening it a bit
