My mate confessed his Atom (300) was actually slower on a challenging b-road than a well sorted Scoob. The combination of AWD grip and believe it or not, weight, allied to a compliant chassis, make the Scoob easier to drive on such roads, where the lightweight Atom becomes twitchy and quite scary. He even admitted to a Fabia giving him a run for his money over Snake Pass, and Dazza is no slouch of a driver by any stretch. A case of choosing the right tool for the job On track, Scoobs were like Rover's against it though
