aye goes sideways well lucky i aint got abs you got a rs2000? tidy i got a mk2 escort

yep family owned from day one and totaly rebuilt in 97

as for all others going on about experience i have loads of it even tho i only passed over a year ago due to being banned for 10 strech but wether i press lightly or hard on the breaks they just bubble back so much that iam heading to wiltshire to get up grades at the nephews garage and some major enhancments

well i can reveal that happily number 555 is staying in scotland,just found out that my mate is the winning bidder! and i can confirm it wont be getting sold on,he's the guy who got me into scoobs when he had one of the first uk turbos back in 94 and he did the whole run in his rather immaculate type r- all in all a total impreza addict and huge mcrae fan,but doesnt post on here often.

cant wait to get a squint at it myself!

is he the same guy that has a story on the web about his first scooby and explains how it felt to be one of the first to own one and roughly in his late 40s early 50s

Like any car, it depends how you drive it. I was lucky in that I learned to drive in rural Aberdeenshire back when we had REAL winters. That gives you confidence. Happily driven up the outside lane of the M9 in the Scoob when it's had several inches of snow and everybody else is stacked up in the inside lane and she's never even twitched. Also driven back roads to my folks in snow and ice without any problems. I only ever use Goodyear Eagles all year round and never had a problem so don't believe it's solely down to tyres, but is more about adapting your driving style to the conditions. Unfortunately because winters have got milder newer drivers don't get the chance to hone their skills in driving in snow and ice.

i can drive it without any fun and confidently like you on the m9 (just have) but im asking as just a wee touch of power and shes wild i can accept that its really the breaks that concern me as they dont seem to respond how id like or expect

This may explain

cheers for the wee help do'h a might off tippled eh? with the word STICKERS

i had thought off the tyres so iv got yokohamas slaped on it and no difference

are we talking number plates here as am no up on the scooby yet and trying to figure oot if my plate has any value or meaning as its got 550 in it

hi folks just wondering what folks think of their scoobies handling in the snow/ice

as i personaly think it utter 5h*t considering its 4x4. my breaks r useless abs kicks in and does nowt and wants to go sideways all the time very easily. although i enjoy the challenge its not pratical when roads are busy i honestly think my mk1 rs2000 handles better and its 30 yrs old with cossie upgrade on the breaks

im fairly sure that if you still have the paper licence you are breaking the law as its meant to be compulsary to have changed over. but hey av recently passed (oct 07) so mines is good for donkeys years after being banned for ten strech

thats great theres folk looking oot fur us newbies CHEERS and when a find a goat al sure bring it along

am new as i got ma scooby for double figures n couldny refuse and glad i did loads o fun
