Saw this morning, 6 car pile up. Black 03 was car number 2.

Looking at the crash, everyone was following too closely in such wet driving conditions. bonnet was crocked but the rear was even worse.

Everyone seems ok, just hope repair bill/insurance wouldn't be too much hassle.

Oh dear there goes next years insurance premiums.
I have heard that there have been a lot of claims for MY03, my theory is the car is much refined, bit more economical, sensible servicing, nicer inside etc so its appeal has widened and its being chosen by people who have no experience of this type of car/ arent particularly 'enthusiasts'. You have also got to be focussed and have an even temperament to drive a scoob fast safely in my opinion. God forbid I guess co car user choosers will get them on their options list. Apologies to the black scoob does owner not fall into this category I guess they are pretty sick right now.

Cheeky whipper snapper !!! My first scoob (STI Type RA) came from the company car scheme !.... not anymore though, too much tax on them.
