Oh yes.... who got the 600th post? Mwaaaaaaaaahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaa! Didn't even realise it.

Calorgaz, I think I did spot yours today... but am a bit unsure. I've seen a couple different 03 bugeyes about.

Jaytc... where you off to? Somewhere nice?

Andy... lol, I sometimes park there on the pavement. The old woman who used to own the end house died late last year... and sold up, so the odd person parks there when you can't get anywhere else. I live on the opposite side of the road like, to the left facing the other end house... but like to park it there to keep an eye on it.

Are you getting your Scoob on Tuesday? Post a few pics up for us when you get it, to drool over.

Even though the 600th post was taken from me I will still post on here.

Roll on Tuesday for another happy Scoob owner. Hope you enjoy every minute of the scoob Andi. They are as good as people make out and when others are jealous just smile. Luckily most people are genuine admirers which just adds to the pleasure. ENJOY.

Andy, is that the one at the bottom of Princess Ave? If so the food is pretty good, although I prefer the Far Pavillion up in Atherton even if it is a bit out of the way for us.

We always go to Astley Tandoori, food is very good. Also been told Far Pavillion is excellent, but never been. Miles away. Astley Tandoori will deliver if you spend enough too.

It is the one at the bottom of Princess Ave. I'll give it a try as I'm bored with the ones in Tyldesley now. Far Pavilion is good most of the time but I have been disapointed a couple of times.

Andi T, how's your Scoob? I'll try keep a look out for you.

What plans do you have for it?

Does anybody know who's the silver classic shape scooby is in a garage in Howebridge? I drove past it today (The one on the sidestreet which links to the bypass next to the chinese chippy) and saw it parked up inside.

Can see the join on the sill. Besides being a cut-n-shut it looks mint.

Spotted a black scoob yesterday on Plodder Lane (DIL ****) with a square reg plate. Nice looking car. Waved and smile back. Anyone seen this one around.

You have to get a bit of dirt on it to fit in with jaytc and myself. You are putting us in an embarrasing position. Is it cleaned in a sterile unit or what?
Wax and polish out tomorrow (Thanks). Are you sure its on a Y plate or an 06 that you have re-registered

It seems to be very photogenic! Wasn't actually that clean..

Plus I'm finding the downside of red mica, I washed it on Wednesday, and it needs doing again now, covered in dust..

3 Blue scoobs spotted today along with 3 waves back.

One on High Street in Atherton near the motorbike shop, one near the Railway Pub in Tyldesley with a lady driver and the other on Castle Street Tyldesley near the baths (another lady driver). Unbelievably they were all bugeyes. Only one wave in two years other than classics then 3 within an hour. Is it the sun?

Could have been me by the bike shop this morning depending on the time, I was there about 9ish.

Saw a stickered up Bugeye further along my travels along the A6 towards Horwich, although no waves were passed (he was turning right and I was changing up from the lights) be both aknowledged each other.

Afraid not. I don't do 9 in a morning maybe a 10 but it would have to be a needy cause. If you start being an hour late for work I may see you. (2 hours would be better though).

Just had a wave of the young lad in the pale blue sport who knocks around Tyldesley. Still think he's about 10 years old. Don't think I ever looked that young.

Stickered up scoob travelling towards Tyldesley from Atherton with 555 decals. Flashed and waved. Very nice looking car. Was jealous. I was in another stickered up scoob.

Have you all stopped going out around Leigh. Rescued the thread from page three. More effort please.
