Default I've just found out how chavvy this site is

Thought I'd do a search about a Lexus LS. What does the search return, dozens and dozens of threads enquiring, buying and selling 'lexus style gay lights'!

Does go a way to explain why so many people left scoobynet though.

Only sill question is, why am I still here maybe I'm a closet chav maybe not

I take your point but the problem with the 'good old days' is that people are casting their mind back to when 95% of the population didn't know what an Impreza was and Scoobynet was for the informed enthusiast. Now the scooby and hence scoobynet is far bigger. I'm sure there are tones of 'little' car forums which seem (mainly due to their small enthusiastic population) to be like what scoobynet once was.

P.S. Lexus lights suck ***. They even look **** on a lexus now

On all sites their are people who like lexus lights and talk about buying and selling them.

It aint a big deal. Blimey. All cars age, have new models, have yonger people buying the older cheaper models. It doesnt mean they are becoming more "chavvy"

I think it would be more chavvy if there was a load coming up in the 'wanted' section rather than the 'for sale' one.

Scoobynet has seen the error of its ways!

No they're not where I go. Don't see lexus lights for sale on S2ki, wscc, blatchat, pistonheads etc.


Anyway, keep chill, thread is in light hearted manner. I'm still here coz I still like to mingle with all you chavs

I've hear that Simon/Shaun are considering changing the "carbon-fibre" bits in the current SN Styling to Burberry.

It's just a rumour

Perhaps if your search had been done on a lexus forum you may have got a better response !
