This is indeed Scoobynet, but many people on here have driven, owned or have experience of a great many performance cars and can appreciate them all for their own merits. Scoobs are indeed very good machines, especially when you consider their bargain basement price for the level of performance, but there is nothing wrong with having an open mind and being able to realise that there are other cars which are as good, and in some circumstances better than any Subaru, and for similar money. Let's try not to stoop into stereotyping the owners of each marque, as on that front Scoob owners are onto a loser

Iain is having horrendous problems getting them manufactured ... not due to the design ... simply because he's a relatively small trader compared to the larger companies who want large volumes of turbos produced by the foundery that produces them and so the other companies get priority

That said, I think he did say that he's also been told that there is a minimum batch run ... so he may have some extras after the initial demand has been met ...

... let me know what he says to a GB !!

Why the shock? I'd never consider a statement like that without the benefit of having driven what I'm slagging off. You're the typical rose tinted, stereo typing , uneducated, short sighted and close mined person that looks a fool with that type of 'assume' mentality that gives rise to the '***' out of 'u' and 'me' saying.

Have you been behind a modern diesel with a state of the art particulate filter like the one in the 6 Cylinder BM's? Have you driven one?

Go check on the various performance figures and come back....

I'm enjoying my 335D more than I did any of my three previous scoobs... that doesn't mean the BM is 'better'... it's just 'different'..

And if you take your head out of your **** for a few seconds you'll find many other marque owners on here... all looking to appreciate and understand other's tastes...

Yes you did.

I was talking about driving a modern BM or even following behind one to appreciate the technology. Not just slating it because it's a D with zero thought for what you were saying.

Hey, life's too short mate. Go give a 335D M Sport a spin.... or have a go against one in your WRX then come back and comment.
