Default Driving 400 kilometer in Scoob

I am just about to go for a 400 km drive in my STi in Germany - 3.5 hours of sheer fun. It makes such a change from Paris driving!

Have fun

Lucky women! in the UK the Tax collectors have so many Gatso's about you can't relax and enjoy your cars anymore. and when you get the bill for the Petrol it will make you cry.

Wurzel - it is 120 km half the way, 80 km in a 50 km zone, and then some road works and then some free runs. I did scare some bmw and s-class drivers.
The bmw at not being able to overtake then beamed a little blue flash at me in the hope that I would mistake him for a police car- what a jerk!

Cool

Mel ,get used to it the drivers of German cars hate it when you destroy them the best bit is to overtake them and then slow down to annoy them then drop it a cog and leave them standing or wait until they come up behind you and indicate to overtake then put your foot down.

I would take it easy in 50 zones but autobahns are fair game within reason.

Have fun motoring and happy humiliating BMWs and Mercs, Porsches are also fun to annoy. We hung of the bumper of a 911 turbo turbo the other week, if I was the driver I would have been really pissed
