For any of us that do not yet have our scoobies, or indeed sold them on, feel free to add your non-scoob pic here (might even have a post without PTMW in it )
This is my Rover 220 GSi Turbo, subtley modded - full details @

Mook,
Looking good there young man!!! The car looks immaculate. Engine bay looks excellent,
Nice wheels too. Does it go hard? I'd imagine it would. Glad to see you're looking after it. Very clean and shines like a mirror.
Steve,
The EVO 6 looks mean. A worthy replacement for the scoob.
WREXY.

WREXY > Glad you like it young man Looking to do more to the underbonnet soon, might colour code a little more and also fancy more Samco bits. I intend to replace the header tank (top right) and power steering tank (middle left) with stainless ones . Pushing out around 220bhp so she goes pretty well, although only through the front wheels . Got some 325mm brakes coming soon, which will be nice
I plan on keeping it but still intend to get a scoob when I move house, either an STI type R or possibly even a P1. Time will tell. Still, I'm glad I joined this BB, gives me plenty of info for when I finally get round to getting a scoob

Mook,
You can't go wrong with the STI TYPE R or the P1. Both are brilliant. And you'll still have the Rover to muck around too. You'll never get bored of driving.
Steve,
post some pics when you get the spottys on. Should look cool.

Ok,
This is the car I sold back in Oz before moving to the UK. My pre-scooby wheels, if you like.
Its an HSV XU8, mmm 270hp 5.0L V8, and all through the back wheels. Roundabouts and rain were an interesting combination
And for those who don't know, HSV is the performance arm of Holden, which is Australia's version of Vauxhall
Andrew.

Very nice Andrew.
I have the oldest brother of the HSV's which I also sold before I left for Greece to buy my Scoob.
1988 Holden Commodore HSV Group A, number 070 of 750 built. It comes with a 5.0 litre V8 and again with a rear wheel slippery diff good for going sideways. Here are some pics.

Here's my previous beast
1989 Porsche 944 Turbo. MAD, **** HAPPY MONSTER
Turbo like a bucket, turbo lag you can measure in days but when it comes in.....
1.9 BAR STANDARD! Just don't take it out in the rain - hence my move to Subaru.

Come on guys we're being left behind here.
I know this primarily a scooby site but there must be loads of Ex/wannabe scooby owners out there with some cool cars.
Except PTMW's Vectra, hello DIESEL.
We've got some great looking cars here so far and some great pictures.
Rich that picture is bigger than my house, just use photo express or something to reduce it then upload as usual.
Lets get this forum movin' guys.
Ok so I'm posting on top of 2 bottles of wine but still we need more non scoobys.

OK some really boring pics.
My new ride, a V6 Mondeo GhiaX. Leather, climate, cruise, electric toys etc. V6 silky smooth but not in the same league as the Scoob.
Here it is before I bought it.
If I want to save some fuel my other cars parked behind my old series McRae, its a Skoda Felicia 1.9 Diesel. Its now three years old an drives as new no squeks or rattles. I will definatly have another Skoda as a run about and may even try the Octavia RS as my large car.
Cheers
Lee
