Title: New Golf Cabrio owner here
Post by: shadowninja on 03 January 2009, 18:17

Evening all,

I know this is a GTI forum but I'm too much of a big girl's blouse to own one hence my recently acquired Cabriolet. A 1.8, too. See, I can't even handle the 2 litre. Never fear, I shall become a man by building up those forearms and bicep muscles because it's such a basic model that it has window winders!  The roof is manual, too, for shoulder presses. :laugh:

Anyway, it is the slowest car I've owned since learning to drive, but I love it. Back to basics stuff. Good, honest motoring. And roll on, summer!

-Darren

Funnily, I now have another. An automatic one this time. Getting stuck in rush hour traffic isn't so bad when you don't have to bugger about with the clutch.  :evil:

Edit: not sure what to do with my original Cabrio. I still have it but it's in bad condition - engine leaks oil, roof leaks, rusty. It's not just the rat look. It is a rat. Has been sitting on my drive for the last 2 years. I suppose I should break it? CBA really!
