That wasn't you with the somewhat low scoob in an 05 with small front plate & scooby doo on the rear seat arm rest now was it??

Spotted you in the esso services carpark just East of Brussells there was a couple of Elise's there as well.

You certainly sounded leaving the carpark. Unfortunately as an ex scoob owner you wouldn't have spotted me as I was in a Cayenne heading back from Mannheim.

Well just watchin/hearing you roar off up the road made me wish I still had mine.

There was a lot of testosterone at the tunnel waiting for the train impressive sight, but nothing beat the rumble of a scoob ...spotted your car there but no one in it, otherwise would have said hello.

You can say that again, hearing this start up made me nearly wet myself!!



I only went inside for 10mins, probably just missed me!! A Ferrari 599 broke down a few cars in front of me on the train!! Had to wait a few mins while they pushed it off The rumble is sooo addictive, rear windows down all the way home
