A good introduction to the world of Scoobies can be found at http://www.sidc.co.uk/faq.htm.
As well as being a nice car, Scooby drivers tend to be a pretty friendly bunch, with informal meets, camping trips, track days and even trips to the Isle of Man
If you spot a meet nearby (see the Events section), and you haven't got one yet, come along anyway and say hello - and find out first hand what being a Scooby owner is all about

Yes the fuel isnt the best but the amount of fun you have driving the car totaly over rules the fuel consumption.
you can get some aftermarket parts at reasonable prices and theres always someone selling parts on here from there own cars or crashed cars so you can always get them some way or another so dont wory about that, i love my scooby so much that when im finished with this one, ill get another.so go on treat yourself

Well said Walwal!!!!
Ditch the mate AND the missus - you'll be much happier with the Scoob (costs less to run, you'll WANT to take it out, you won't mind everyone admiring it, it'll very rarely complain etc etc).
Seriously though, there's no words to describe the feeling you get from owning a Scoob. I wanted one for years and I never expected to get as much pleasure from it as I do. I have discovered a direct link between my right foot and the muscles around my mouth - as the right foot goes down, the corners of my mouth go up!!!
Go on, you KNOW you want to
