Why would anyone want to do that,

To a very special limited scoob.


I dont think decals improve any colour whether it be old or new.

Still asking good money for the WR1s.

Wonder what a newer, more exclusive car would go for, say a T25

Your T25 is a credit to you. and like any car its only worth what someone is prepared to pay.

I believe I am right in saying that apart from any special limited spec C editions,

The WR1 is still the quickest 0-62 straight from the factory in standard form.

Mind you saying that its was also the most expensive at the time of its launch in 2004.
When the RB320 was released there was hardly any difference in purchase prices, even thought it was 3 years later.

I am glad that they the WR1s seem to be holding there price, probably because almost every week on WR1OC one seems to disappear.
When I think back what I paid for it, it was alot of money and my house would have been paid for by now if i hadn't have bought it, but I still get a buzz when I open my garage.

It was my choice to buy it and its my pride and joy.

The same as everyone else that owns a scoob, they are all there owners pride and joys, and people respect others vehicles for what they are.


The constant piss taking about the colour of the WR1 of which I happen to like, is getting a little tiresome all be it tongue in cheek !!!

Peoples choices should be respeted!!

Thats like saying, except for the faster models available! the ford focus 1.6 estate is the quickest 0-62 straight from factory!!!!

How can you discount the other faster 'special editions'?

Don't forget the S204 now thats a scoob that holds its money, also faster 0-62 IIRC also made in three sensible colours

Sorry.

I should have said available from the UK, and not including imports.

you are correct about the times though they are :

S204 = 4.2 and weighs 3196 lbs

WR1 = 4.25 and weighs 3241 lbs
