In there! ask to take her out for a ride, then go out in the car or something...

 

your in bud!!! a girl asked me the other week to take her out for a ride in mine, when i asked what kind of ride she gave me a nice look and smile. i love owning a scoob!!!

gav..

p.s-she was a babe!!!

 

Hmm .. so she didn't talk to you when you didn't have the Scoob. Tells you something about that girl

 

she must be under 17 as all the women I know hate scoobs They all love Z3's and TT's though.

 

good point steve!




lol

 

Hmm .. so she didn't talk to you when you didn't have the Scoob. Tells you something about that girl

No, I knew her to speak to before, but this was a tad out of the blue
Turns out she is a bit of a petrolhead and wants a scoob or an evo herself

BTW matt5cott - didn't know you posted over here too. Have you realised who I am from Big Forums?

 

Hmm, used to have a cav, now got a scooby, from swansea.

no idea

I see ownership of this car is doing you well so far, I almost regret not getting one myself now

 

Have to say when I owned an Impreza all the women I knew hated it!

On the other hand when I put down a deposit for an SLK (personal circumstances changed so cancelled the order) I had women at my mums company who I had never even met before wanting me to take them out in it.

I think unless it is a convertible or a BMW/Mercedes women on the whole are not interested.

 

Only young men stared at me when I had mine (eww), but it's true, I get FAR more attention from women driving the Eunos.

 

bet they're think............I could do with a hair cut!

Or

What a shame.............another nice bloke who's gay

 

Yeah yeah, feel my apathy

 

I got much more attention in my Mr2 Turbo than the RB5, by a long way, which incidentally was quicker than than the scooby until recently.

 

STi you know some shallow birds with bad taste, Z3’s, yuuukkk .

Only yesterday I was complimented on my fine automobile by a couple of rather nice ladies, not 17, but early 20’s. Seeing them again at the weekend, mmmm which one to take home to Mum? LOL.


M

 

get in their quick....work experience doesnt last more than a week or so does it?

T

 

Girls dont understand the gold wheels, but they seem to like the attention and being looked at when in the car. The car has helped me meet females on several ocassions. Its obvious they pay attention cos they think you have money - then you tell them its all tied up with the insurance company.
Its when they start asking to have a drive in it i get worried. I tell them thye can drive it when they buy it :-)

 

"I got much more attention in my Mr2 Turbo than the RB5, by a long way"

now thats what I wanted to hear

 

Impreza's are blokes only, women just dont understand the need to spend a couple of grand on somthing that works already. MR2's however are crap beds. Bit of a dilemma i see

 

Thats what the bonnet is for!!!!

 

Just waiting for Scooby Diva or Scoobybraids to come in here and disagree with most of this thread

 

The admin girls at my work know how to keep us scooby owners in check.

They keep emailing me saying there are kids swinging on my spoiler or that i could use my spoiler as a washing line.

Boy racer some times gets thrown in there also.

They love it really and they know it - lol

 

i have loads of interest when i drive my scoob as well , one of the girls at my gym asked for a ride .she surgested a drive to a country pub on a summers evening (don't tell the missus)
pulled up to get some money at a cash point came back to find two girl looking round my car again asked for a ride.

I LOVE DRIVING A SCOOBY.

 

Matt5cott... what are you doing here

 

Girls tend to like my scoob as well. Ive never had no bad comments about it just good. I love the attention i get in it especially from the ladies.

 

"It's a bit noisey!"
"It's very bouncy!"
"These seats don't allow much movement"
"Have you enough petrol to get home?"

Just some of the comments recently.
Couldn't help but laugh this afternoon when I pulled up to an office and 4 yummy ladies were stood at the window and said "lovely car we heard you coming!" Very nearly regretted wearing track suit trousers on my day off!

Usually get more comments about my reg though (55 BJ),I just give a wee wink and a smile and say "it honestly stands for my first 2 initials!"

 

Thought it was time for a chick's opinion!

I don't hate Scoobys - absolutley love 'em. Had my MY 02 WRX for just under a year now and fall more in love with it every day. IMHO most Scoobys are driven by car enthusiasts and therefore if the girls you're chasing don't appreciate 'em, don't bother - it'd never work anyway if they're that not into cars!

I get second looks all the time in mine from chaps on the road ... they go through this "hey, it's a Scooby" "blimey, it's a BIRD driving it" "blimey, a BLONDE bird at that" thought process ... it's great to watch the realisation dawn! And I have to say a I'd find a male Scooby owner more attractive not because the car suggests money but because it's a 4wd aggressive super quick car that isn't bought by poseurs but by true car enthusiasts who enjoy driving and are well into their cars.

Anyway, I'm waffling - as women do - but to the chap who started this thread ... good on ya! You're definetley in there .... she may be shallow - then again she may be a girl who's into her cars - a truly lucky find!

 

Just ask her to cut the cráp about the car and tell her to get her títs out.

 

 

You see, charm never fails
