Default How will my scoob compare to a P1

Howdy all

I had a P1 approx 3 years ago (awsome car)

Just bought my second scooby, not driven it yet, and wondered how it compares to the P1? What am i to expect :-)

Its a MY04 with PPP and a few mods inc remap, upgraded exhauset, K&N air filter

Different cars....It will depend on your memory of the P1 IMHO

hmmm my memory of the P1, interior was poor (dash)

very fast, massive acceleration, abit of turbo lag, crusied effortlessly

it had a very quiet exhaust though which was disappointing, i didnt have it long enough to get it changed but i never really got the scooby sound from it so i dont have that memory

Great car though, only had done about 7,000 miles as well when i had it

yup buying a car without driving it is naughty, i have been stung a few times in the past also, with cars not being "as they were described"

I wasnt going to do it again, but then i saw this car, which was robocops btw, is that a good thing? :-)

Also it was being sold by Litchfields who i felt i could trust

Hopefully i was right!

Cheers for your comments all
