Mark.

So you got it done in the end then CORSA NUT. Because you did have thoughts about selling it for a Motorbike iirc, that idea go out the window then dude?

Flocking looks awesome. Can I ask how much it cost? And where you got it done?

I'm no a fan of the flocked look either but its a lot better than the scratched plastics mate.

Good rubber as well, great for the price and just as good as the higher end tyres. I thought the tyres were a bit skinny as well, my evo is a 235 wide as standard so I thought the scooby was the same.

Whats the pads like??? I have red stuff on mine with the braided lines and there kind shite but once your caine it there superb, squeel like a biatch tho.

There superb mate, I'm trying the 912's just now cause my mates works in a tyre place and got me them mega cheap, just as good as the 452s.

There brilliant in both wet and dry. Better than the F1s I had on my LCR anyways.

Not sure, I'm confused as thats the figure I always read. Didn't think it was anywhere near 1400kg.

Well CORSA NUT had it on a weigh bridge so i'd say that's accurate minus the fuel he had in at the time.

Just to confirm on the weight!!

It was full of fuel AND me and the missus i'm 13.5 stone and the wife is about 11 so that must add a lot of extra weight from a dry of 1275!

I still want a bike mate watching the GP at the moment it's torture Need to make the Scooby mega sellable first so i can get the most for it it's nearly there.

It was £200 all in but that was with me giving him my old interior etc etc

The Falkens come highly reccomended off Scoobynet mate and for £52 from Camskills they are a bargain!!

The pads so far are a million times better just need to bed in a bit more then i can push them.I found my old red stuff ones sqealed too
