First scooby I have owned. was gonna start with a less powerful one, but just went for the WR1 instead, and i DO NOT regret it! insurance was a bit of a bugger, as I am 25, and never owned a quick car before, but hey ho, it was definitely worth it

Want to keep her standard for the time being. 315bhp is fine for me at the moment, but seeing on how things go, might have a few things done. I intend for long-term ownership, so may push her to 380-400bhp down the line. will have to see.
And the tape player?! Yep standard scooby CD/tape player. its proper pap! haha

Looks well
I've got number 147 which I am totally made up with
Not many have made the quoted bhp though - mine only did 292 a few weeks ago although torque was 304 lb ft

The PPP'd cars have more control over the way they retard their ignition, if your not getting all the air possible then it will knock the timing back, though the ones ive seen on rr's have made pretty much their quoted bhp figures

cool mate. are you on WR1oc? Probably won't have mine Dyno'd tbh, unless I get anything done to it. Even if its down around 290 like yours, I am still completely satisfied with it the way it is!! next quickest thing to mine that i know is my mate who has a new Focus RS. he struggled with keeping up, so she is good enough for me!

From what I understand, the plaque, numbered tax disk holder, and key ring all came in a bag separately when the car was purchased new. so it was personal preference where bits and pieces were stuck. Most people usually put the plaque down in front of the gear ****. personally, I like mine where it is. Almost looks like it is supposed to fit there. fills that blank space next to the cup holder
