well beleive it or not went on the southend cruise tonight (or tried to) and my scoob which has never let me down since i bought it new 2.5 years ago failed to start when trying to leave the tescos carpark to go to southend now you would of thought that with 40 odd scoobs around a few of them would of offered help

well only a silver classic and a guy in a ford people carrier tried to help the rest all drove off to southend

now i know not all of them saw me and obviously i dont want to ruin there evening but surely some one could of helped

so tonight has made me think if i see another scoob in problems would i help

one of my coolant pipes split yesterday on my wrx and couldnt drive it due to not wanting to cook my engine, so a mate of a mate with a scooby towed me 2 miles home and made himeself late for a date lol. So it shows there are scooby drivers who will help you out.

Yes someone on here did stop to help a scoob on the M4 in Wales and discovered it was Tiff who had ran out of petrol

It does sound a shame, hope you got it sorted ok in the end.

Cheers

In fairness I think most of us were concentrating in leaving Tescos and therefore probably weren't aware of your problems m8. I am quite sure if people were aware of your problem they would have assisted.....the question is apart from the classic silver was anyone else aware...if they were fair enough I support your comment but if not then perhaps your comments are somewhat unjustified

steve you may not have seen me but plenty did some just stared while the guy in the silver scoob and my son and his mate pushed my scoob

i know becouse i saw there faces looking so as i allready said not all might have seen me so i cant say everyone but plenty did

after you all left we was sitting there all lonely with the bonnet up and a couple of other scoobs obviously late for the cruise appeared they saw me but they didn`t even offer help

so all i can say is thank you aa at least i can rely on them

sorry you had problems, i was one of the first to leave, so was completely unaware of you predicament.
i certainly would have offered assistance had i have been near enough to have realised your problem.
i would think as already mentioned most scooby owners would have assisted if they were aware.

I saw a Green Scoob on the hard shoulder of the M1 once. I slowed down, was about to pull over and lend a hand until I saw the blue lights hidden in the grill and the Beemer in front that he had just pulled!!

Edited to sort out spelling!
