S, my brothers just got one of these things (urg!) Paid top dollar for and old shape (the best of the ugliest). He thinks it's the business.

He seems to think that his Jap-crap (sorry I'm biased) will beat my Carlton GSI3000 24v. OK it will through the single track lanes but them a new mini cooper will beat about anything throught these lanes.

Can you guy's here let him know the truth. I'd hate him to blow-up his yellow-man machine trying.

ultimate supercar day, 8th and 9th August at Santa Pod...

Go up there and take a run together see who's fastest....!

But even if yours is faster, he made the right choice with a classic shaped scoob!!

Ive got a Thing too

me too


and it definately isn't called Vauxhall

Ha ha.

I knew it would get you boys goin!!!!!!!

He'll see this as I've sent him the link.

Santa pod is on 1/4 mile. Come on! Rome wasn't built in a day.

BTW. If he does beat me I'll cash in the ISA and then I'll get the lotus and you can all K-M-Ass.

9800 for a "W" with low miles and A/C in good cond. Is it too much?

for his scoob - tis a very good price!!

sounds a good price mate..just do a good check on history etc

if its any help I just paid (last week) £14500 for a UK "Y" 2001 bugeye with 16k on the clock has a few extras (headlight conv , splash guards, Forge VTA D/V ,magnex and all colour coded but no real serious mods.. condition is immaculate though

Cheers for that.

He's no mug so he must have done his research but I just thought it was a bit OTT.

He seems to like it.

0 - 100 he'll whup u. After that you got him IMO. The GSI24v could do 50-70 in the same time as a Cossie. So in gear it could be a close thing.

It's got him wound up anyway. I don't think my mum would be too pleased loosing both her sons racing each other.

I keep winding him up that he only brought it 'cos at 34 he's having his mid-life crisis early!!!!!!!!!

Nothing wrong with a mid life crisis at 34, that's when mine started and i went out and brought a scooby as well, kids love, wife's a moaner though, but what the heck i don't care....
