Hi. Haven't had a scooby for long. When driving about and you see other scooby own, does anybody flash the lights at them. Like bikers do and when i use to own a RS2000 years ago they all use to do that as well.We all look out for other scooby so give them and flash let start it off here.

Used to Flash other scoobs, but afrer so many near misses when people think you are letting them out of junctions or trying to get past the car in front(which i usually am !!) that i have stopped flashing my lights and just do the friendly wave or manic wave depending if im negotiating corner.LOL
On different subject been driving scoobs for over 5 years and still none has spotted me on here.Is there a statue of limitations before you give up?
Oh well ever hopeful from Bucks...

I've had the problem of people jumping infront of you when you flash at scoobs, so i normally now wave.

As I drive my partners car (corsa) quite often, when I get back in the scoob and I go to flash, I end up activating the w/s wipers, mainly wave now.

I always flash or wave,but i'm amazed at the amount of people who don't acknowledge it sometimes.

Ive given up completey. All scoob drivers round here are boring. Saw 2 fuglys today waved at both and they just looked rather strangley at me the pair of them grrrrrrr.

Owning the cossie was different everytime you saw an RS you always get a wave whether it be cossie or fessy turbo.

There was you getting all horrified when NAF wanted to kiss ya.....if he finds out you are happy to blow kisses at people you have never met I think it'll break his heart.

Edited due to extremely poor grammar for this time of day!!! LOL

Chelle,
