I've just picked up my first scooby and was driving around the area at that time. Silver V-reg, Prodrive spoiler, gold wheels. Big grin on face!

I saw another silver one heading towards the Shell garage at the Southwater roundabout.

Hi stityperltd,

I've seen you around too - distinctive car! You let me out to pass a bike on the Holmwood bypass on Tuesday, I waved and you waved back. Then I followed you down the A24 to Horsham. Sounded nice but not excessively loud!
Forgot to add - I was in a black Mondeo at the time

James

Hello stityperltd
You have been spotted on here a few times now, you were heading towards Horsham on the A24 from Dorking way.
Sounded quite loud but you were accelerating at the time!

Are you going to the Bolney meet 26th April? (see Southern)

stityperltd,
Welcome to Scoobynet

You can find the Bolney meet in the southern section or just click the link http://www.scoobynet.co.uk/bbs/threa...hreadid=152234

Keep your eyes peeled for the West Sussex meet on the first Sunday of every month at Pease pottage services Next will be the 4th May.

I still haven't seen you, even though you've been spotted in the Horsham area a few times
Iain.

stityperltd,
That could have been me if it was about 6.15

You should have come down after filling up as I was re-setting up the Dawes device on the next stretch of dual carrageway up

stityperltd,

So what time was it? If it was just before 6 it was probably me.

Dyney,

Good bit of road that bit Had a DBM MY99/00 next to me on that roundabout yesterday. He didn't acknowledge me though so I'm afraid I had to show him what for down there I spose I should give him credit for not taking the bait though

Not me then.
My spoiler is a wee bit smaller and I don't do gold wheels

Saw a DBM MY99/00 today passing my gaff in Horsham, no wave but then again he had just jumped clear over the roundabout

I wasn't the blue one you saw, mine is black with gold wheels (Catalunya), I was in the pub car park at the time.

Will you be going to Bolney?

stityperltd,
I think most use NF, though some do use Millers.
Look out for PT Holt www.j-spec.co.uk is not to far away if you wanted to pick some up.

Get your name down on the Bolney list, we need to get it up to 100 (only 2 to go).
Bolney meet details are correct, though I know alot of the cars from other clubs are meeting there too, might be difficult to spot us, so don't be supprised if one of us leaps out infront of you

Iain.
