Can't help thinking Subaru have 'shot themselves in the foot' regarding the new scooby, with relation to the motoring press.

My reason being: About 6 months+ ago almost any motoring mag (serious ones) would have a scooby article/ road test/ comparison, this month there are none (I don't think), the latest Autocar even has a test of the EVO VII and does it put it against a scooby STI (the historical rival), no it goes against the Clio V6, this really makes my mate happy (works for Renault UK) but does not make me so happy (scooby owner).

Am I just being critical, or is there some truth in it??

Auto express has a STI V EVOVII feature, I think it's this weeks, it was on the table in the canteen, we don't get long for a brew so I haven't read it yet, nice pics though!

Good,

IMHO it was all those articles that made it so vulnerable to the car thief and all the young chaps wanting to race in their Nova's.

Welcome back anonomity

Driven stooped using the old model at the end for their comparisons. Think a lot of people got pissed off when it kept winning.

still, maybe the less its seen about it may go the way of the cossie with the spotty oinks all following some other marque
