[john]

I spoke to Alan today before he did the deal and I have told him he is more than welcome to join on the mini runs with his new scooby so long as he does not expect us to wait for him all the time.

Its been agreed that if he cannot keep up then I will give hem a lift;)


As you would expect from Alan his new car is not just any scooby-doo,it is of coarse somthing special.

watch this space:cool:

My Bro-in-law just bought a UK300. Love it.

[weefossy]

Great machine Alan, but it's no a mini, if you know what I mean. Hope you have many fast and safe hours of pleasure.

[The Dogfather]

Nice car Alan, sorry to see Millie go but she was becoming troublesome!

[Wul]

NOOOOO!!!! Alan - what have you gone and done!? :p Have to say had a shot of an early WRX and the interior was straight out of a montego!! I presume it's better these days!!

Hope the new car goes ok mate.

<so what bits are you sellin off mili then:p>

to be honest WUL on my 2005 Scooby the inside has improved but it's not the best if you know what I mean.;)

[euan]

I'll be honest and say I'd been looking at options for the next motor and one of these flew past me on the M6 today and looked smart and I did start to wonder about them.

Shame the MINI is going, but still, VERY nice motor :)

[KenL]

Wow, the performance looks very impressive - won't be much on the road that could keep up with it.

Good luck with it Alan - at least it will be delivered fully modified!

[Mini Martyn]

Wll done on the new purchase, hope that youhave many happy miles driving it!! :D

[minidriver#1]

congratulations Alan! I love that colour and its definately and eye catcher :) limited ed is always the way to go ;)

[Mini Me]

Nice set 'o' wheels mate.....whats wi everyone sellin up :p

[Scottie]

just a wee bit infor on what the scooby drivers think of the WR1

http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthread.php?t=409884

[Gismo]

They certainly have their fair share of hate driven towards them, i also noticed on that forum of the lack of the community spirit that we currently enjoy here on NMS and MINI2

I guess i won't be a regular over there then :evil:

i thought that aswell but think it's more the green eyed monster with some of them re the WR1.

some of the guys round my area have been ok

www.sidc.co.uk seem a far better bunch but to be honest don't think I would find myself going on a run with them might just be a bit to old.:disapprove:

[sh@z]

awesome car Alan, congrats and flippen eck this came out of the blue didnt it :p

Heh. That's funny! "Personally I don't like the car that's a limited edition, goes faster and looks better than mine!" Must've been a bad year for grapes.

[Duncan Stewart]

What have you done Alan! :(, sorry to see you leaving the Mini fold.
Scooby is a nice car, I'd have one (if I owned a petrol company ;))

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! (er, no offence to any ONE drivers!) :D

[AeroJonny]

I was gonna agree with you AstroHaggis, but then you had to go and rip int ones, tut tut.

My Cooper might be quicker, but the one's the real looker in the family.

That limited ed scooby's awesome, saw one going down to the clyde tunnel off the expressway on friday and did a wee bit of subtle drooling!

[shoppie]

Shame to see the MINI go Alan, but..........
you are welcome to bring the new toy to Arbroath in July to show it off:D:D

I'll even give it an "exclusive" pitch on the park with a few buckets close by for those who may find the need to drool.;););)

Seems fair enough to me, so long as you don't blip the throttle too often and show us all up. :)

[Gismo]

No other car on this planet could take away the head turning ability of the MINI, especially when there are around 60 of them in a line :cool:

[Big Gordy]

Was there not a posting on here with all those Scoobies going to that wee lads house in Belgium (I think:I) Just as impressive IMHO :p:D:approve:

[euan]

Big G, I think the difference is that a lot of people love the MINI and everyone looks different (bonnet stripes, alloys, wing mirrors covers, roof graphics) whereas the Scoobys all look reasonably similar (well, I've not seen a Scooby with bonnet stripes or roof graphics, and I am excluding the WRC cars from that statement) :)

[macblob]

Nice motor, and serious power. Just wish I could afford insurance adn running costs on something like that :disapprove:

[Gismo]

Should have known, car is in JC's with an engine coolant leak, i just couldn't live with myself if i knowingly sold it with a problem :( hope it's a warranty job

Yay for me, it was the good old water header box, all to be sorted under warranty :)

Congrats on the new motor Alan but sorry to see old Millie go :(
If you're needing to put a few miles on the clock to run the new beastie in, there are some lovely wee roads round about Crieff ;) Hey, you could even stop by my house and take me for a pint :p:D

can't imagine what you are going to be like with the WR1 double well chuffed I would think:D

[The Dogfather]

I followed a WR1 (I think) on a test drive coming back from Montrose. All I could smell was burning rubber, so looks like you've got a good one there Alan!
