Default she never liked scoobs until ........ she drove it

It took a good few years for me to twist her arm into getting my subaru , she hated them until I insured her and she took it out , she absolutely loves driving it altho still not in love with its looks . She has come full circle as it wasn't that long ago she was saying i wouldn't be seen dead in one . Lol

Anyone else experienced something similar ?

Definitly.She absolutely hated it when I suggested it, but she wanted a 4 door car and since it was my money, she accepted it. She drove it to work a couple of days where I was away and many many MANY guys almost broke their necks trying to keep staring at whe while she drove by. After that, she absolutely loved it

My Mrs never owned a scooby but it was her that convinced me to get my first one last year and now I'm hooked.

She doesnt like the big rear spoilers and wr blue with gold wheels was a definate no no , So i compromised and got wr blue with anthracite wheels . Oh and the big spoiler (it is my car after all ) .

We're saving up for our wedding so most my spare cash is going into that but on the sly my mate is ordering me bits and bobs to his house and paying on his card whilst i pay him cash and then sneakily fitting them
