Drive it and enjoy it.

Whats the point of having the second best scoob in SES ?

And looking at it tucked away.

You can do that with a photo or do you like to sit in it and waste petrol and going nowhere?

Scoobs like to be driven and don't like not being used.

R2 gets parked up when the weather gets bad and roads get worse then the WRX gets used more.
WRX is primarily my winter car.

Nicely played don't really get chance to drive due to work as it I's and only gets worse I'n the winter...Mord of a toy really, Suppose what I should have said I's it won't be getting used so what apart from keeping battery topped up should I look out for....

As you say keep the battery topped up, turn her over every now and then and leave the hand brake off.

When and if it snows have some some fun.





Oooooooooooooops sorry I forgot it doesn't get wet.

Too many places to play when it snows to be locked away
