The scooby is a fantastic car, i would have kept it if i didn't already have the 330Ci (well it's me julie's)
It just don't make sense to run 2 high performance cars, so, for once common sense has prevailed, ok maybe i took a bit of a hit in the pocket with the final trade in etc, but, cheap insurance, much lower running costs and a quality motor as well as being back in the community :cool:
For anyone considering a scooby, the WR1 is all you ever need, no need to tune or modify ;)

The idea is to create a Car PC for the Omega (and MINI at a later date)

I'm thinking of installing a docking station for my laptop with a Touchscreen on the dash, the Lilliput 8" touchscreen only costs £160. There will also be 2 cameras front/back, USB GPS with PDA software, Bluetooth Phone Connection, USB TV/Radio Card (I still need to look into the aerial) and wireless illuminated keyboard all connected through a USB Hub. There's also special interface software available.

The Laptop will be mounted in the boot but will be removed when the car isn't in use.
