Bailey is our van of choice having had our Olympus for 5 years. The Unicorn Cadiz is top of the list for the new one.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

Caravans? Oh dear, T5 combo and convert it to a camper!!  :whistle:

Way to small. Our current caravan is 7.1m long and is just about right for the 4 of us. Our kids are quickly out growing the bunk beds, so we need a 'van' with a more suitable layout.

Ahh i see your problem, one of them would do me perfectly, towing caravan on a GTI just seems criminal!

Actually found time to drive it! Still love it 2 weeks of sitting in the garage clean because of work, it was time to enjoy it!

We were away over half term and a couple opposite us were towing with an A5 Cab  :laugh: The Golf wouldn't make the best tow car. Even tho' it's got the grunt, it isn't heavy enough to stop the tail wagging the dog.

Thanks Rebecca. It didn't look like that earlier this week, and giving it "the works" was long overdue.

Just six hours to go to finish fully detailing my Candy white GTi before sale. That will be a total of 30 hours work on the car. Hardly want to sell it now.
