    Fao The Welsho

    It was a good meet too, almost spolied by the incident with the cops, but all's well that ends well. Co-piloted the Barhead Bomber. and what an experience that was, had a good few laughs and a good few frights! Car is rapid and well handled by it's driver. I kinda got lost in Strathaven as I was too busy trying to get my face and my spleen out of the back seat! Thanks for the experience Jim!

    glad you enjoyed it mate,even though it was on the :D map lol

    Import Car Tax

    in Scottish Scoobies

    Posted

    If it was imported after 2001 then you're going to pay higher tax.(£400+)

    If it was imported before then you're ok.

    There are ways round it though depending how it was originaly registered. Best to check the V5, if it has no CO2 rating then you're ok, it'll be down as PLG and you'll only pay £185 or so.

    mines is registered 12/01 but no co2 rating so does that mean i can swerve the tax humping?

    "did you enjoy the wee hurl in the car then craig?"

    It's quite an experience,a full on sonic attack to your senses.The noise from the screamer pipe at the front of the car coupled with the roar from the back while at exactly the same time being pinned to the seat while being propelled very very very quickly is ballistic............then there's the attack, nae full on assault of the corners..........exhilarating,manic, and unforgetable.So the short answer is yes.

    And might i also add that's a very nice example you've built yourself, stunning.

    cheers craig deffo quicker than mine,well in a straight line anyway :rolleyes:

    looks like it'll take some catching in the events ahead john after being mapped B)

    I am looking at water injection too, maybe that will help cool the charge a bit. mayeb thats something for you to look at too!!

    cars looking good chris ;)

    unfortunately water/methanol injection is not endorsed by all but time will tell.there certainly seems to be

    a lot more tuners etc recommending it.

    "Bolted a second seat into the car tonight to take Craig out for a Wee Hurl, I was conscious he'd spent a lot of time and effort on something that till tonight had been an inanimate object, not what a car is supposed to be, I think he sees it a little differently now "

    .........ahem,...there's spirited driving......and there's "your a f'*cking maniac!" :D

    did you enjoy the wee hurl in the car then craig?

    nice meeting you and apologies for classing you as a panel beater ;)

    Anybody,s Scooby Stolen Last Night ?

    in Scottish Scoobies

    Posted

    Travelling home from work at the airport this morning , i was pulled by a Strathclyde polis dug van

    who then called 2, 5series beemers(traffic)

    a meatwagon

    and an astra estate !

    They had pulled me because someone had been in a high speed pursuit with them 30 mins before in a blue scoob , in the paisley area i think ?

    Certainley woke me up , at that time in the morning ;)

    Paul

    maybe grant out buying skins? :D

    Daily Drivers?

    in Scottish Scoobies

    Posted

    as a daily driver mine would be about £15000 a year on fuel alone :D

    hence the old beemer for work.

    used the last car(370bhp) as a daily driver and done 19000 miles in 14 months.not very economical

    and hard to justify the expense to the tax man ;)

    hats off to you john the car is a monster lol.

    followed it tonight(or tried to)for a few miles and is in a different league and was running at low boost!

    for all the £££ others have spent they wont even come close :lol:

    Godspeed Brakes Any Experience Here?

    in Scottish Scoobies

    Posted

    over the years ian has sold plenty of brake kits,discs,pads etc with not much complaint!

    and if there has been a fault he would rectify it without question so he was probably a bit p***ed off at

    the accusation of selling $hite.1 or 2 had the guy hanged before the jury had even taken to their seats :banana2:

    Finally Had A Shot Of An Evo.

    in Scottish Scoobies

    Posted

    Im not bigging up the Evo just giving my oppinion am a proud Scooby owner and with any luck always will be :D

    nothing wrong with bigging up evo's mate,out the factory they're probably better cars than scoobys!

    you dont find them rushing out to buy arb's,springs,droplinks etc but then they have a load of

    other sh*t to keep them on the road wth the engine being too far forward.

    also less £ to make them go faster :D

    spec c's rule though :D
