C'mon, make your selves know please. Am interested in finding best places for tyre's service's etc and just find out who else is out there.......

 

Hi Roger,
East Devon here.
Sti v5.
Keith.

 

....and are you all as unfriendly as the 12, yes 12, Scoobies I waved to during a week's holiday in your esteemed county who ALL just blanked me.

Do you hate 'grockles' that much?!

 

South Devon. P1 and always wave but it is not always returned . Service=Asburton Motor Works .

Gav

 

Blue MY00 wagon - always wave and it's true not often returned - service at Park's Exeter and just had rubber moved front to back at M&M Marsh Barton

Forgot to mention - Exeter, though driving to Midlands this Saturday and back on Monday so see you all on M5/M42

Hi Roger MY01 WR Blue, just got Toyo's for 80 something in Exeter, 17's. North dev tyres i think. Small garage in holsworthy would do GDyears for 75. Purchased, serviced at Ashburton they havn't given me any bulls@it yet but had some from the other 2. What you drivin, where abouts.

 

From Wales but coming to devon today for a few days. Give me a wave if you see me around Brixham. DBM 99 gold wheels.

Chip

 

yep from Exeter.

always wave to scoobs but dont see that many around down here......

MY00, green with gold alloys.

bought from Ashburton Motor Works who service it to. excellent service always here and would recommend them. not sure about tyres, will ask a m8 but he;s on holiday at the mo ! as he knows a good place in exeter.

GavM where u then ? dont think i've seen you around ? Did you purchase the P1 from them to ? they sold 2 at the same time i got mine, both i seem to remember had P1 plates ?

Sandman - yes we hate grockles coming to clutter up our roads, esp as they cant drive in a 'lane' thats not 3 lanes wide but we'll make exception if they drive a scoob when were u down here ?

Sasman - where u m8 ? not seen you around neither !

Chip : might be over that way around weekend.

cya

North Devon - Waiting for Templeton Motors to fix my P1.

TM are classic 'They all do that sir' dealers, but if you hassle them with evidence then they will do what they are told (eventually)

Got my Bridgestone SO2's from TM (after much debate of course) and they turned up with a competative price fitted... You'd be surprised how often a normal garage can get a good price on tyres - they usually just use ATS type places, but they get trade discounts.

I always wave at Scoobies (even from my wifes Seat Ibiza ) but my wife drives my P1 a lot now and can't tell the difference between a Toyota and a Scooby, so she doesn't wave

Steve,

Is that you I saw a couple of times in the last few weeks around St Davids first thing in the morning (green scoob 2 passengers both looking slightly surprised)?

 

Roger - no not me m8. drive horrible hire car for work most of the time cos i wont use mine to do lots of miles !

steve

 

I'm visiting Devon this weekend for a short break!

Will be in The Masons Arms, Branscombe nr Beer most of the time!

phil

 

Roger the Cat!? Roger the Cat?!

I knew you were a funny lot down there with your cream teas and scrumpy, I'm surprised you can drive cars without throwing up!

But Roger the Cat!?

Well I never! Each to their own I s'pose. Quaint country tradition is it?

 

Phil - away this weekend - enjoy its a great place. BTW your email address says natmags....how is broadwick street? (Roger=ex VNU)

 

Barry,

Like its not all pidgeons/grim and whippets/grim up north eh?

Was waiting for someone to spot that one. Maybe our brains are all addled by clotted cream and pasties so it takes a notherner to spot.

oi roger dont take no cr*p from that northern ale drinking scouser !

he's just jealous of us southerners and the better life down here compared to him being ooop t'north !

infact i dont think he should be allowed to visit Bristol next week.

ignore him and if we're really lucky he'll go away

he's also obviously got no work to do cos he's always posting on here !!

steve

 

I mentioned before Steve, Hatherliegh way and I'm still waiting to play counter strike, addicted to Op flash point at the moment. F.F. Barry "and that's without even playing him" can go to Bristol but will anyone understand what he's saying. I cant believe I missed that ROGER, saw a dbm 5dr in Torrington the other day?.

 

nope no one will have a chance m8. i play CS all time with him and now we've got the voice comms i cant understand him at least i could just about understand his typing !

ah yes i remember u now ! well forget that Op F rubbish and get online with us !

 

Any of you guys go near torquay keep seeing a blue one near barton area?

 

Roger

I'm sure Broadwick St is fine....but I work out in Docklands since they took over G&J publishing!

It's not bad, means I can drive to work and have free undrground parking

Phil

 

Steve-In Torquay. Did purchase P1 from Ashburton but not from new. Traded in old impreza for i year old p1 with only 3k on the clock. Will look out for you in Exeter (I'm usually around Marsh Barton)-but off the road for a two week ban from yesterday
And that was before i upgraded to p1 -help.

Huggy bear-i go through Barton often-quick way out of Torquay. Blue P1?

 

email sent gav.

 

Sasman - guilty as charged - was around Torrington at the w/end, some good roads.....though had family on board so was being restrained!

 

Gav,

Happy to look after your P1 for 2 weeks.....

Rog

gav : not with P1 plate then ??? never seen then have a p1 2nd hand ? mind me asking wot sort of deal u got ? 3k on clock !!! did u buy your old impreza from them ? ouch - thats gonna hit your insurance ?

rog : we'll split gav's P1 for a week each m8

steve

 

Hi,

Lived in Exeter for 20 years but recently moved to Cornwall because of work. I come back to Exeter every couple of weeks to see family and friends. Steve, do you use the M5 quite ofen if so I think i have seen you a few times.

How about a meet some time? I can supply the Cider and Scones!!!!

Cheers.

 

EXETER!!

 

A meet would be good but you know F.F Barry's gonna turn up ten minutes after Steve cos that's what happens every time he post's. I will bring a northen phrase book so he can join in.

We were down in Axmouth for a week (came back a week ago)but got around a bit.

Just love those long 3 lane uphill bits.... wait patiently for the git that just has to pull out in front of you and then struggle to overtake, then breeze past as he finally pulls in, his engine about to explode under the strain. he he!! Don't you just love your Scooby!!!!

By the way it's 'Sadman' (As in: mid-life crisis? You sad old man!) Not 'Sandman'('cos who wants to gallivant around people's bedrooms late at night throwing around small grains of silica? ...or is it sloshing port around?) I'll get me coat....
