Golf mk7 / Re: What have you done to your MK 7 today ?
« Last post by Rudedog on 23 April 2024, 21:14 »Or as James May came to the conclusion in 'Cars of the People' - the VW Golf was the "perfect people's car" - and all the car you could ever need.
Even Ben Collins (the Stig) said that out of all of the GTI's he would have either a Mk5 or a Mk7.

Thank you for your support and advice. It was invaluable.
I took it along a dual carriageway and drove at 70 mph and then dropped to 30 mph without braking. I did this about ten times! It worked. Now back to normal.

Golf mk8 / Re: MK8.5 Official News / Open for ordering the 11th of April
« Last post by BillSan on 23 April 2024, 18:16 »That's a higher percentage discount than I was expecting.
It won't be enough for me to place an order though. The 8.5 just isn't different enough from the Mk8. I can't pay more money for what is substantially the same car.
