Default Scoobyclinic; Shock bribery scandal expose.
I've been noticing that we've bought quite a few turbos from Scoobyclinic over the last year or so. Now they supply excellent billet units, and we're happy to recommend them to many of our customers.
However, the numbers don't half add up, and I usually leave that side of the business to Martyn.
In the wake of reading about how the Arabs don't buy any fighter jets without a "sweetener" I've been keeping a close eye on Martyn's dealings with this particular company and have discovered a quite shocking addition to a delivery this morning.

This arrived, along with a handwritten note saying "Stuff For Martyn"









Explain yourself, go on...

I have of course taken the offending articles into protective custody.
Or should that be "Custardy"?

Judging by how many turbos ET has, the level of bribery must be absolutely emense

is this one of ET's back room shelves?

And Martyn's diet was going so well obviously Kev and Adam have heard rumours of the monster he is building for the drag strip and are trying to slow him down
