Looking for a new Scooby but I`m getting bogged down with all the different models, I know the basics but get confused with the Type R imports etc is there a guide on the internet or could anyone narrow down the models which would be the best choices.
Basically 10k ish to spend, not worried if its UK / Import, classic would best, new as poss and low miles.

Recently bought MY98, white, classic with 56,000 mls for 10K.

Hope this sheds some light on it for you.

Just picked up standard UK MY99, 28k miles, fssh, A/C, 2yrs warranty etc £10k
I wanted a totally standard, untouched one that I could do the work to so I know its not been absolutely leathered by previous 3 or 4 owners if you know what I mean. Although Im sure plenty of other people on here wouldnt agree thats the best way to go, but it gives me a bit of piece of mind

Just my opinion, hope this helps and happy hunting!

Well done Jay_Bee!

Looks like I got ripped off!
The only mod to mine was the back box (and the sun-roof.)

Sorry Subarstar, wasnt meaning to pee on anyones fire

Not sure that you've been ripped off, I just bought mine the week before xmas. The guy at the (Citroen) dealership even told me that I would get an amazing deal because they werent selling any cars at that time of year.
Plus you get extra brownie points for the sunroof

No worries m8 the car I was trading in needed a new timing belt, rear trailing arms replaced and brakes done.
Needless to say I didn't tell the garage that.
I just wanted shot of it.

Doesn't make me a bad person does it?

Nah, not at all m8. They try and stiff us at every available opportunity...what goes around....

I blagged top book on mine (Audi A3 1.8T), which needed a 75k service, 4 new tyres, new brake pads and had a slightly blowing exhaust very close to the cat (OOPS, did I forget to mention that, sounds expensive ) and a small crease on the rear wing!!! They must have been desperate to shift some motors, thats all I can say
