Welcome Dave

Unless your Scooby is tuned, you'll not really notice too much deficit between that and an Octy vRS (especially when mapped - infact, I'd put mine up against a UK Scooby without fear of being beat when rolling!

Well it has been put back to standardish form at the min so its 293Bhp and 260lb/ft. It was 462Bhp and 515lb/ft so i might notice a bit of difference

Re: Newbie

Hi Dave,
I'm a fellow Derby lad with an Octy Vrs. I am sure that when you notice your improved mpg and cheaper insurance you will not miss your Scooby that much.

Regards,
Carlos.
