Are scoobys alright?

[philh]

I am thinking of getting a scooby wagon about 96 vintage (new baby nees sensible ish car). I am not sure about a 2.0 sport or turbo due to reliablitity and maintence costs. I was told by a dealer that turbo scoobys of this age need regular servicing ie every 7 months? basically any opinions and information on decision would be helpful.

Are the service intervals the same on a sport as compared to a turbo and what sort of money are you talking for a service? and why are the intervals so short?

[philh]

what are the prices of services, clutches etc
