unless your family come from a certain 'ethnic/lifestyle' background who are free to do as they please and it's impossible/illegal to criticise them.

I know where you can get just such a caravan.  :wink: :grin:

One of my personal pet hates is when someone has their first kid and decides they can't manage without a people carrier :rolleyes:


And mine.  I stopped at one kid as I knew I could not go down the people carrier route.  :laugh:

Even a Passat is too large, lol.

That is racist :smiley: but I'm Irish so I suppose it doesn't count as racism  :whistle:

On the contrary, it's not a racist term, but is in fact the term by which certain groups of Irish Traveller wish to be referred by.  I was enlightened by such groups during a number of court hearings and a traveller seminar.  :smiley:

Years back affectionately referred to as tinkers, on the whole genuine nomads. Recent times however, well I've also seen the effects the so called travellers have on the community and  environment.

Way to off topic for this forum and no way racist, one has to be boringly so PC these days.

Anyway they have SUVs and luxury mobiles to haul around, not horses and carts, and definitely not a Golf GTI.

Our other car is a Mk7 GTI DSG 5dr Tungsten, Vienna, Rear View Cam, Park assist.

The Golf GTIs are what the 15 year old lads have to razz around in.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.
