lol,
I remember when I was running the RB in, a superbike pulled along side me on a duel and lifted it up on his back wheel....
He soooo wanted to have a go, just a shame I was running in!!

Had a play with a few since

I always wave too, sometimes you get a response, sometimes you don't Typically women don't wave back, blokes normally do I've had a good few waves recently

I just have to remember not to wave when I use my M3 Done that and looked like a c*nt

Yes but then you get into the dark world of M3 drivers where you lose yourself & wave at an M3 driver whilst driving the scoob and they don't respond because they're snobs

I'd only wave at an M3 if they waved first (which they never do)

I've tried waving at M3 drivers whilst driving an M3 and it didn't go down well I think it's because M3 drivers typically don't have friends

What I tend to notice is that the **** that fly around in stickered up old classics don't tend to own them long, once they realise the running costs.

All the time, we're a friendly bunch round here.


Unless it's a mate, then I tend to swerve toward them.

There's this lad i see regularly that always waves, but he drives a golf. ??

I always wave, women are oblivious to anything on the road i think, they never wave, neither do Hatch drivers. This is one of the things i love about owning a Scoob, 1 big happy family!

Had a type r V-tec powered classic mini clubman before the scoob and without fail every mini that you come accross would give a wave and a flash, doesnt happen as much in the scoob but still makes you feel all warm inside when it does happen.
