Took out the link cos I didn't realise it would let you scroll through the entire album. Tried inserting the file to no avail and then got scunnered. K.

And look where I ended up... First photie post on SIDC, hope it wurks. K.

Pedro, Just read the Mondeo "Replicant" article. For others, it's a Ghia X done up to exactly match the livery of a touring car. The engine? Bog standard 2.5L 186 BHP Duratec. To borrow a phrase "A sheep in wolf's clothing". Ken

Wisnae me. K.

Anybody wanna buy it? Registered 31/12/98, 55K on the clock, over £2K mods. Engine unmolested so should be sound and had the timing belt done at 42K miles when I bought it, so as not to repeat the RB5 experience. I may not have it much longer for reasons I'd rather not go into. Offers anyone? Just testing the water, will try to stick up some pics soon. I can't remember my RB model number but the reg was V71 FDS. Dave give me a flash of the lights the next time. Ken PS. Da Crooz. Dear God, just noticed another three Scoobs, all Classics : yellow with carbon bonnet, white STi with roof vent, and, No! Blue with gold alloys! Don't know when it was but I bet the seagulls were lapping up the pavement biscuits the next day.

Dave, Aye, 18" alloys and a Scoobysport exhaust. I take you've a white Classic? Bought Fast & Modified today for the first and last time. I noticed an RB5 at the "Helensburh Cruise"; any ideas? Ken

WR1 on the Stockiemuir Road. Nice. Also a green Classic wagon near Gartocharn, while some clowns in a silver VW were trying to race me. Silly for trying to goad on a busy road and they would never have won, even at at Knockhill. Ken

Nope, I'm just your local stalker. Being a Son of the Rock I was always told as a youngster not to mix with those OK boys. When I go out for fun in the motor I always head West or for work reasons East over the OK bypass so I haven't seen the "Low Road" for a while. ATB, Ken

You took your time D. Been at the Ettrick? I don't even know if that's still there. Anyway, I'll go a single. Room, that is. Just trying to keep the forum going and I do display my SIDC & S. Scooby stickers; it's good to get acknowledged now and again. All the same, I must say again, what a drive today! All the best, Ken
-
Not too sure but is that one of the streets that overlooks the South pier? If so, I could tell you a story, but it'll be a PM. I got to Tyndrum and back in just under two hours from Dumbarton. This includes a bit of mountain watching and a wee walk about The Green Welly Shop. Not bad. But I burned just over a quarter tank for 80 miles; L. Lomond is mostly third gear I find. I've done most of the twisty bits of it before without pressing the middle pedal for a dare. Knocks feck out the g/box though I'd imagine. The weather looks set for the same tomorrow so I may carry on to Glencoe to do some runs at the straight bits at Bridge of Orchy and get some photies in Glencoe. A word of warning though to anyone else in the area : I was very careful today watching for black ice, keep an eye on the road-side puddles, they'll give you an idea before it's too late if you're travelling in the mid-morning. K.

T'was me dithering about stopping for a roll & sausage. If you recollect, I put on my L/H indicator (!). You were in the white, marked (not Polis!) car? Some drive, eh? Except for the old cnut who overtook me at 80 on a blind corner before a 2 mile straight, between Glenfillan and Crianlarich. Touroid, obviously doesn't know the road. I was being good 'cos he was in a Beemer ie. maybe Traffic. I could have caught the fecker, but it's not worth it, I rarely rise to the challenge much above the speed limits these days. What was the job? I know Oban quite well... Cheers, K. PS. watch out for a "dark coloured" Octavia in Strathclyde.

Thursday 24/02/05 11:00 am. A DBM saloon and a silver wagon, both Classic turbos, and both waved. Nice. Anyone on here? BTW. What a day for a drive : majestic, snowy scenery, just enough enough traffic to make overtaking interesting and my bog standard (well, a bit loud) Terzo going like a train. K.
-
Tonight, 28/01/05, I clocked a blue Suzuki hatchback on the A82. The number plate? SUZUKI Shurely shome mishtake? The car was shiny, maybe newish, but I couldn't see any trade plates on it. It's prolly a mistake, but if it's SUZUK1, it must be worth a fortune! K.
-
Will try to photo on Saturday / Sunday when we will have daylight at a reasonable time. They're not too scruffy though, was thinking about reverting to them for winter. I'll keep you informed. K.
-
Original Terzo 16"s with good & legal tyres available. Negotiable to barter and / or cash. K.
-
Will have the form in the post tomorrow. Home printer's goosed! K.
-
Good info Gordon. No doubt it'll be in W. Dunbartonshire at some point, as they tend to be rotated. Would it be the same engine as the VR6, but I agree that's not a Skoda option? K.

What a footer! Pardon the pun. Just finished fitting a set to the Terzo and I found them difficult, but okay if you have very small hands and a third arm (with spotlight attached). Anyway, they look well smart, although I think I should have gone for the blue jobs (call in Justin and the other shirt-lifter to co-ordinate things and get my Feng-Shui right). The thing is though, I had a problem getting the brute force to get the the foot rest screws off. The angle of the Phillips screw was a bit offset, having to de-press the clutch at the same time, so cue Father (6'4", 18 stones, ex. Traffic). He helped me by undoing the fittings but commented by saying : "In a crash, you'll lose your feet with those." Looking at them now, I have to agree, they are a bit sharp looking. Any thoughts guys?

WARNING to all Liv. Vic policy holders ..
Ken 275 replied to stephen_fergus2's topic in Scottish Scoobies
No luck Mate, Try More Than. For my last renewal in August I had a quote of £1,300 from Kwik-Fit, at which I'm afraid I laughed at the guy on the blower. Through a a broker I got fully comp (with a big excess) for £470 with my NCD life-protected. Bit of a difference. K. -
Whoever it was, sorry! I was negotiating a left-hand turn from a side road, with a fag in my hand when you waved. If I had returned the salutation I would probably have lost control and burned a hole in the sun visor (did it before on a previous motor, believe it or not. Even more improbably, I picked up a replacement for the Legacy visor at a scrappy in Yoker!). K.
