Ever seen a Scooby get pissed on by a Fiat Doblo? your probably thinking nah, not possible. Well being in the passenger seat of the Fiat Doblo after a hard days work ( of basically doing f all) we started making tracks home when we came to a village called Great Fransham (A47) where we were swiftly overtaken by a scooby (midnight blue colour) by a early to mid 30 year old, he then passed another car to which we fought back taking the car just before we came to the dual carriage way, (chevron markers are great to start overtaking) the very practical Scooby driver opted for the mirror signal manouver only to find that he had more chance of pissing in the queens shoes than passing the car in front. To put it bluntly we were about half way past him. We got a very nice hand signal from him as we passed, not too sure if it was a thankyou or not. We then took about another 3 cars with the Scooby ending up 2 cars behind as we pulled in to Dereham.

POWER IS NOTHING WITHOUT CONTROL !!!!!! K.P. ( AKA DOBLO MAN)

Fiat Doblo VS Seat Toledo GTI (GT?) 2 Litre Thingy to be posted soon...

If anyone owns a Ferrari or Honda NSX or anything relativly quick e-mail for burn-up....

Well done, good job you did crash into anyone though, just to prove you could beat a Scoob.

er i reckon he wasnt even trying - am sorry you cant think that a van can seriously "out-do" scooby.

I will be having use of a ferrari next month - i accept your challange

HAHAHA, exactly my thoughts Sammi! A doblo hasn't a chance even with a 70+ year old driving!

Stu you'd not be a match in the merc, sorry, you would be left in the dust!

I didn't realise my dad's scenic 1.9dci (i.e. more power than your Doblo by 5HP) could outrun a Scooby, excellent! lol

paul lol i think he means he would challange the van in the merc

i reckon i could stand a good chance with the bravo out doing a scooby yay lol

there are 2litre NA pretzels, and if the doblo already had speed built up - and was half way past the scooby, even it was a real scooby - whats it going to do? force the van off the road?

Oh I know, the Doblo vs. Merc, if the doblo can laugh at a purpose built sports car (still considered one the best even if driven by chavs for the money) this merc wouldn't be much of a bother, this doblo is on steroids

So it wasn't a real race after all, then?! P'ah, how silly of me...

paul, re the merc. the quote 0-60 for a std scooby is around 6.4 seconds iirc and the UK ones have a miserable 220ish bhp.

i wouldnt be making bold statements like it'd leave it for dust, it probably wouldnt

Top end speed of the Doblo 1.9JTD is 105mph.

I have been in a top-of-the-range Prodrive conversion Scooby - it was awesome

TO be honest I don't actually understand what happened but i do understand he is claiming a Doblo in some way or other out did a scooby, which is unlikely to happen - you and I both know that!

The slowest scooby (i.e. auto) is still 0-60 in 10 seconds and that's only 123BHP. The 200+ BHP scooby as quoted here is 0-60 in 6 or less seconds (4.6 for the P1) according to info on net. Picked up speed or not, the 200BHP+ one will eat it for lunch...!

Sorry Arc, both you and Sammi misunderstood me I wasn't arguing merc vs. Scooby, I honestly don't have a clue (like to argue clear fights like Doblo vs. 200BHP scooby ) I was refering to Doblo vs. Merc Sarcastically saying that the merc wouldn't have a chance.

soz paul lol lets start again go doblo

They do in Austria.

what i understand happened, the scooby overtook the doblo and another and pulled in. doblo want to overtake the car in front, scooby was being slowed by the car in front of it so the doblo driver overtook the scooby too. scooby couldnt speed up cos of the car in front, or overtake the car in front because the doblo slowly passing it.

the slower 1.6/1.8 scoobys were dropped in 1997 i think, and now any scooby is 200+ aside from the 2.0 na.

but yeah, well all know a doblo cant really out do a scooby at anything bar carying stuff.

Bit below the belt but certainly not off topic.

And looks of course.

I had a ferrari 360 Modena today.

It was stationary in traffic, and I zipped past in my 1.4 Stilo courtesy car, left him for dust


Or maybe that doesn't count as a race? I am confused now
