Andy Forest is rethinking is Scoob after this 760bhp may not be enough.

These Cossie Herberts slay me with these posts, try entering an event & then see how you get on against a decent modded scoob. A freak incident on the local by-pass does not turn you into the ultimate Scooby slayer.

Have you no regard to keeping your licence?

Also, are you aware that if you're caught 'racing' on the roads - it's punishable with a prison sentence?

No wonder insurances for cossies and the like are so high when the insurance companies read this sort of thing on a public bb.

Not you specifically but the 1000's who post on nearly every car forum about other performance cars they have trounced.

Do you really think this doesn't have a knock-on effect on insurance premiums and that insurance companies just ignore it?

Everyones quick to jump in and say it's stupid aren't they?

So he had a bit of fun, wheres the problem? He knows the risks and if he's willing to take them then thats his choice.

Stop acting like none of you lot have done it.

I dont believe that posts on forums have ANY impact on insurance prices, its all calculated on the amount they pay out not on who posts what on a forum.

can you imagine what the scooby boards wold be like if it happened the other way around?
"scallped a cossie on the way to work today, and i've ONLY got 245 brake"

failr play to the man if he's done the scooby, but thats him driving his car and an unknown scooby talent in the other unknown scooby, it's a bit like saying "i drank 15 pints and he only drank 2"
the 15 pinter is the one who's going to be fucked the next day ain't he

not that i'm doubting creasy for dusting scooby deux mind

I went out a bit before you i think, to give my already whining diff more pain for the sake of it - was the biggest and cleverest thing to do


like most of the people who have rs's are beyond reproach for having a blast on the road

Whats it like being holier than thou? Is it lonely up there

Posts on an internet forum have fuck all to do with insurance premiums, postcodes and claim history of the driver and claims analysis on the type of car has a lot more to do with it

Get the same over here, my premium go up every single year, and im an old git by now. Im sick of paying for young brats crashing their toys. I could get a brand new Audi RS6 for the same premium as the cossie.
