Red face *** in Black Sti Basildon this morning!!

Was it you (?52 my) who cut me (lady in silver 53 wrx) up big time on the roundacre r/bout. Had I not have braked you would have took my front off or pushed me into the car to my right! Going from left lane right round the outside of the roundabout. Did you not see I had a young child in the car???

M8 you give scoob drivers a bad name.

If you wanted to be spotted, a wave would have done the trick!

Will somebody think of the children!

My driving doesn't change if there's kids in the back of a car in front.

Thanks to all who gave sensible feed back, glad to see scoobynet has respective members.

Can't believe though that others have to pick at detail and miss the point that this was reckless driving!

unfortunately more and more novaboys are getting scoobs so this kind of thing will happen more and more

your average driver will just see every scoob as a boy racer

But we dont buy these cars to go fast and do silly things.....




do we

Question: How many Novaboys do you know who can afford to buy and run a 52 plate STI, not many in my experience.

I think this thread has gone slightly off topic...

The *** in the 52 STI obviously was driving in a manner to concern RB5 JO, the fact she had children in the car makes it a worse experience for her... surley people understand that...?

If my girlfriend/partner came home with a story like that I would be greatly concerned..

Probably the old "my car's quicker than yours" mentality when only one party is taking part (because the other is far to sensible to race on public highways)

Isn't one of the reasons for buying a Scooby for the power and the fact that we like an exciting driving experience? the ******* this thread relates too, is purely and simply a bad, inconsiderate driver and should p/x it for a mondeo! then at, least we'd be expecting sh*t driving, no signals and total lack of respect for other road users!

If people insist on buying fast cars, then driving round with kids in them, causing traffic jams, you can expect to be "cut up". I doubt it was as close as you make out. Just an excuse to start a topic

(sighs......).......... Yep thats theory seems real cleaver..... So therefore (according to you) people with kids should all buy Slow cars and then you won't 'cut them up?'

Well surely they are'nt nova boys then, I think your referring to chavs.

I am aware of the point you were trying to make, you just were'nt explaining it very well.

I wouldn't claim benefits. I'd rather shovel ****, or work in McD's than claim benefit.

Sorry! forgot to apologise to anyone who might take offence to someone voicing their personal opinion. PC and all that.
Can we not get some sort of legal documentation made up and signed by everyone so that you can actually speak freely, openly and honestly without fear of upsetting anyone whilst on SN? Pretty please

Perhaps it was not his in the first place??

Maybe it was a case of "I have got an STi, you haven't, so I will try my best to show you small my *****/ego/brain is"

Well said

People with kids in the car are just as bad when their turning round telling the little brats to shut up.

Not interested in the popular vote cheers. Its just I drive round that roundabout a fair bit and I see what people thier drive like. Lanes are there for a reason. Please try to select the correct one

Personal insults over the net. How funny are you?
