Cool


Reading the article it says:
"pictured here as it will look at the Motor Show" but later "our images, computer generated from using info from Tokyo insiders".

They seem confident it is the new Scoob, but the pictures arent real. If it is the new Scoob, then yeah, it looks pretty tame, like most other Jap cars. The 5 door looks even worse.

What is tasty is the following page, which gives details of a new Evo VI variant - the GSR for £26k.

W888 JDA appears to still be available for purchase on the DVLA website for the princely sum of £399.

I know the site may be a few days behind (though there's no good reason for this) but the pics are months old... Hmmmmm

As for hacking into the DVLA. Think of all those clean licenses. I Wish.

2) 'ard
3) rather good
