Whilst driving in town:

Worked so far..

Emphasize the positives of the mod you're fitting...

Quickshift - will stop me crunching gears hence prolonging the life of the 'box

Panel Filter - Increased fuel economy as better air flow

Dump Valve - Easier on the turbo prolonging its life

Morettes - Safer night driving due to better lighting

PPP - More power at your right foot should you need it to safely overtake a bus/lorry/string of slow drivers etc.

High level spoiler - ermm...you figure that one out

Cool

"what part?" quickly hiding the pacaging.

"Do you want me to be able to stop?!" (when complaining about brake prices)

I've also tried the better economy line. Although since I left my walet @ home this weekend and she had to fill the car up AND on the way back that one wont wash anymore

However now I've taken her round on a track day (granted in the westi) and heard me n dad talking about new engines (e.g. £1000 on a puma) scoob mods seem quite cheap

It is good for picnic stops...

If I didn't spend the money on the Scooby I might buy a Superbike!

Doesn't work for me though as I already have a superbike... doh!
