Default Worst car you've seen with a Scooby scoop?

I saw an H reg Ford Ganada Estate today with a 'classic' bonnet scoop.

A few weeks ago I saw an old Toyota Carina with one, the driver smiled and waved to me as if to say "Hey I have a bonnet scoop too"

i saw such a car today. i couldn't even tell what it was anymore. ithink it was once a chavalier in .....brown. with every conceivable max power ridiculousness imaginable. lots of bonnet scoops and vents and carbon fibre this and that and stickers and all sorts. thank god beer was invented or that guy would never get laid.

Black (well, maybe at some stage in its life ) 1.1 Metro (from the days when they were Austin) with various bits of Halfrauds crap on. And a classic bonnet scoop held on with gaffer tape.........

Have seen it about a fair bit so will try and get a piccy if I can work the camera on my phone.

There's also a red fiesta with a blo0dy great aluminium whale tail and a blue scoop .

I think we must attract all the chavs

to be honest this is not quite the same but as i was coming home today i came up behind a silver saxo with a bolt on body kit which looked well bolted on if you know what i mean now this on is own was bad enough but the spoiler he had on the roof was massive it realy looked like a planes wing it must of been over hanging the sides of the car by at least 2 foot either side it looked so funny!!

which is probably got something to do with the way it was having trouble going up the hills and holding everyone up!!!

Unhappy Come back, I only want a photo!

Ford escort mk4 with a massive scoop, large spoilers, bonnet pins etc. The bloke who drives it works next door, I really want to get a photo but the last time I tried my battery was flat and he saw the camera.

Hes left it at home ever since.

The very next time it turns up I am having a photo and posting it. The funniest thing I have seen on the road! Its only a 1.6 and the only thing the scoop does is cause drag.

Theres a blue toyota corolla taxi that i see parked on the way into nottingham on the A6005 from beeston (car is parked on the A6130 just off the roundabout where the designer clothes shop is)

At first i thought it was a terzo, then as i drove closer i realised that it was a toyota with scooby front bumper inc fogs and a bonnet vent.

A chav who lived near my old house had a classic subaru scoop on his 306 diesel - along with those stickers that make normal headlights look like morettes.

A bloke down the road from me with a Ford Escort Mk IV 1.4 (el cheapo allys, bean tin exhaust tip etc.) has just spent all last saturday fitting a set of massive oval "Ford" logo vinyls all over it. There are huge ones along the entire sides of the car, big one on the bonnet, sunstrip taking up half the windscreen, back windscreen, roof etc etc.

Was the carina blue? I see a blue one on Slough trading estate all the time with an Impreza scoop.

Ive seen loads of Vauxhalls especially nova's with bonnet scoops. This is mainly because of the Throttle botties on the C20XE (the engine to have if you own a Vauxhall astra GSi)
