Title: Decisions, decisions . . . . .
Post by: JC on 06 August 2011, 23:44

Looks like a MkI is out, cant afford a decent enough one  :cry:

So it was MkII re run time,

however, the call of a wagon is strong, espeically if its a 2.9 VR6  :laugh:

and NO fuel consumption isnt an issue, this will be a TOY only.  :wink:

Just buy it, if you must.

Or man the f*ck up and get over to the Fatherland and come back with a VR6 Syncro wagon.
