    Alloys are unusual, are they oem or after market?

    The wheels are original.

    You might want to take another look at the title of this thread though.

    The colour is "pump up the blue" and the alloys are upgrades called Boomerang from Opel.

    It has stop start technology and gear shift indicator so that keeps it fairly economical if driven easy.about 4.5 to 6.5/100km

    But then again it would have more of a fun factor with a turbo.
    The rear seats are only good for people with no legs, but this said Im 5"11 and there's plenty of room in driver and passenger seats.

    Seemingly there is a 1.0 Turbo 115bhp coming on the market in the Adam soon.

    i would have thought that 100bhp would be more than enough to get a little car like that around.

    i think they are cool, a clever idea on Opels part.

    i genuinely wonder (not in a bad way, necessarily) why anybody who wants a fun looking, customizable, 2 seater city car buys one of these over a Fiat 500 which starts out @ €2k less. I can see them being every bit as unreliable as people would expect the Fiat to be and to depreciate pretty badly too. in my opinion there is a very "Ford Ka Mk1" vibe to them, visually.

    I feel like i'm being very critical. I like them, but i wouldn't buy one, personally.

    I like the scooby but I prefer them with a wing. Looks kinda funny without one.

    I think it'll be grand for traction without :-)


  • Registered Users Posts: 22,929 ✭✭✭✭ShadowHearth


    I am not going in to that debate anymore. :) I love my scooby without a wing and u love how it winds up others lol. No pun intended. :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,309 ✭✭✭✭wotzgoingon

    I'm not talking about traction, I mean for looks but anyway it's his car and he prefers without but if I owned it , it would have a wing.

    Looked like it was running pretty well when it flashed past me coming out of Mallow just before 10. :cool:

    Norty norty on the undertaking! :pac:

    Don't worry - I can completely relate on that particular 2-lane section coming off the roundabout as have done the same myself more often than I care to admit ;)

    I like scoobies without a wing. It makes them look more unique too. Each to its own. I would not make a campaign of " take all the wings off subarus!! " :pac: Though I have to admit, it really puts a smile on my face when people get ocd about it! :D

    No, I'm a lady!

    Seriously though, I get your point. I do feel self-conscious in thinking that the stares I get in traffic are stares in surprise in seeing a male driving it, I feel sometimes like shouting out the window that it's my girlfriends car!

    My regular car is a Saab 9-3 1.9Tid, so hopefully that has redeemed my sex status!

    @toyotafanboi: I was expecting much more acceleration from the 100bhp 1.4 engine but it was disappointing on the open road. I then checked the 0 to 60mph and it's around 11 secs, that's slower than a diesel Focus I often have!

    It is a niche car and is fun and quirky, but the laggy 1.4 engine takes some of the fun away from it

    Just changed my E46 coupe 4-pot diesel for an E92 6-pot petrol. Just don't do the miles these days. At this rate, I'll have an F32 next, seeing as I had an E36 previous to the E46! :p

    Crazy to see that car here. I rang the lad selling it the day after you bought it, so too late for me unfortunately. One of the best speccd E92s I've seen for sale here. Very jealous of you, let me know when you're selling on haha! Well wear :)
