Question

This is something I have been wondering. With all these users on here how did you all find out about scoobynet? I found out about it through Astraboy and he told me to come on here and look at something and I got hooked from there

I was thinking of buying a Scoob and (IIRC) this site came out at the top of the list.

Pure luck. I was just typing in variations of "scooby" to find a URL that existed, when I came across this site.

It's surprising that there are so many Scoob owners that are unaware of it really. This community has the potential to be a whole lot bigger.

I heard about this from a very good friend of mine, Tony (aka Tony1979). The very man who told me to test drive an impreza before buying Audi (My choice of car was changed instantly), Thanks mate.

Saw it on a scoobs rear windscreen, wrote it on me hand (Had a rep mobile at the time) Nearly missed my exit off of the roundabout. Trying to write, wind my window down to listen to it, Get in the right lane and change gear

Worth it though

Some good stories comming up thing is when you find this you don't do any work anymore You need to get the scoob first otherwise you can't afford one because you give up working

I found the original scoobynet whilst trawling the web for information on subarus. The second generation scoobynet only kicked of a year or so later after the original one was shut down by its owner.


Quick Reply: How did you find out about scoobynet?
