You are right about the car benefitting from being driven instead of sitting for weeks at a time. I am also falling back in love with it. I really considered getting rid a while back, just because the other 2 cars I had were so bloody comfortable. The Scooby has made my back ache for sure, but it has made me smile all over again too.

and there lies the problem. It is tempting to go for comfort sometimes, but pound for pound they are one of the best drivers cars out there. I have driven mates 911's, fast merc's and Bm's etc, and whilst they are lovely cars that are very quick and far 'better' than the scoob, for me, they just dont hit the spot like my rattly old scoob!. I think its the fact that it is just a 4 door saloon and really shouldnt do what it does that makes it such a laugh. I have never owned a car for 5 years (usually 2 tops) and I still get in it today and it makes me smile. The only thing that has tempted me out of it more recently was an 08 plate C63 AMG on pistonheads. Now, that was very tempting, but I cant justify the extra at the moment and I dont think I could part with the scoob either.
