Cool Took the mate for a drive....

I took my mate out in the scooby on Sunday, first time he was every in on. We went down a few wee lanes and turned onto the main road, there was no one about so I red lined it up throught the gears and he near had a fit. He had one hand on the OH **** handle and the other one on the dash and both feet pushed right up the foot footwell.
He drives a MK3 Golf diesel its as dead as Heckter.

I just changed my Ford Probe for a Scoob Wagon, told her we needed an estate as we had just got a dog and needed a more practical family car. She knows nothing about cars and had no idea what I had bought till I took her out for a spin.... she screamed too - said it reminded her of a rollercoaster

Saying that she loves driving it, but obviously not quite so enthusiastically

I've had mine 3 weeks. Took my brother (who's competed in national level motorsport) out for a spin. Only got 1/2 mile before he grabbed the "Oh ****" handle and asked to slow down The sis-in-law just giggled and mouthed "Oh my God" a lot I just smile until I see the petrol gauge

And being a Wagon, you can get two types of hot action in the car

lmao yeah sounds great, leaving the car ticking over and burbling would be better than any romantic background music.... well for me anyway - the missus would only want to leave it running for the hot air
