  1. That's the spirit!

    Also, I don't know if all the newages are the same, but mine has a thicker/grainier blend of paint on the bottoms of the doors ('stone chip resistant', I believe they call it) - seems to deflect most of the little B-road projectiles without leaving marks.

    Yes mine has that too almost looks like orange peel :crying: I have noticed some small chips there as well not worth bothering about! You are very right you do have to accept it!!!!

    Ta

    :blush:

  2. Just got mine back from the bodyshop for a wee dent repair and now I have another! :crying: but don't care any more now after reading the replies on this, so i'm away out for a blast as its a braw day :crying::crying:

    Sorry to hear that!

    It looks like the stuff it attitude has really rubbed off :crying: Good for you hope you enjoy your drive and come back with smile on your face!!! Once you open it up and here that sound you will forget about the dents :blush:

  3. Result! :crying:

    Cheers and stuff the paintwork blues! What a rip I gave it today made sure I added a a lot more stone chips and even more to the BMW from behind me(tiny dot in the end in my rear veiw mirror :crying: ) when I left him for dead!!!!

    Gave the Scooby a real thrashing today had the biggest smile on my face ever! Grinned when I could hear the gravel hitting the paintwork and thought stuff it! The burble has been unleashed and I am smiling, so that's what it is all about I understand now!! :blush:

    :crying:

  4. :wub: Scooby back to its old good looking self again after a trip to Ian Greives for the replacement parts that were stolen from it!!!

    Even bigger smile on my face now when I am driving my Scooby again!

    A big thanks to Charlie and Jamie at Greives for the quick service and getting the parts promptly for me!!!

    As for the dings and dents well I have accepted that's just part of being a Scooby driver lol!

    Well Chuffed :P

  5. Guys and gals thanks for all your advice! You know what? everyone of you is right at the end of the day it still drives like a dream! And yes I do still get a smile on my face everytime I get in it and drive! Think the B roads are to blame for the dings and chips!

    You have all just made me love my Scooby again :) and it's nice to know I am not alone with the dents and dings and chips and all!

    I say stuff the dings and dents it's no way near as bad as what has happened to some peeps on here so soz all about the rant and ta for listening :P

    So from now on "foot down and drive" ;)B):P

  6. Hi Guys just about ready to throw the towel in with the Scooby had enough now!!!!

    2 dents on the car and now the back trim leading up to the wheel arch pulled off? (don't know for sure though and can't really prove it)

    Mark on one of my alloys too why do we spend loads of money on our cars can any one remember me please? ;)

  7. You're welcome, Shelly B)

    I take it a de-tango is on the list too? :o

    You must have nightmares about that thing - hiding behind a tree at the side of the road, waiting for your bug to pass so's it can pounce onto your boot lid and wrestle the mighty STi spoiler out of its fixings and into a ditch... HA! AS IF! Back to the airing cupboard where you belong, you minging old spoileroo you!!!

    B)

    Tam.

    Detango on order with my Bday money as I type B) As for the spoiler into the loft with the rest of the Scooby museum bits :)B)

  8. What was the damage after the crash? (I'm guessing there was another thread about this, but my memory is gash). Was it off the road for long?

    Tam.

    P.S. I don't get the bug-haters - there are so many great examples posted on this site - e.g. yours, Wulsey's and Shelly's (now that the ironing board is history)... no accounting for taste, I 'spose :)

    Thanks for that comment about the ironing board I thought I would never here another word about it, yet it is still coming back to chase me :thumbup::):D

    BTW still got it might put it back on just for a wee change NOT!!!!!!! :P

    No on a serious note thanks very much for saying my wee bug eye is a great example I am not finished with it yet!

    Cheers

    Shelly

  9. Same here had a great day (it was freezing though also spent most of the day in the car away from the cold!)

    Some really nice Scoobys there! It was really good to watch the cars go round the track!

    Nice to speak to all the familiar faces again and meet some new peeps! :) Defo up for it again!

    Thanks Hammy for the jaunt up! Trevor is sounding good with the new exhaust (I want one lol!) :thumbup:

  10. I was rather bored so came up with this what's your thoughts? I think it is different from the norm! And shows off the new alloys!
