Title: What Is It With Women????
Post by: Cupra Turbo on 10 November 2003, 22:42
Simple question...

Why do women think these cars: -

Nova
Astra mk2/mk3
Clio 1.2/1.4
Renault 5
Saxo
AX

Are sexier than a Golf GTI????

... baffles my mind.

Nova = OMG what a shed
Astra mk3 = GSI 16v is fast, but rest are minging and slow
Clio = point taken, hair dressers
Renault 5 = ???? eh? Shoe Box
Saxo = ... VTR is so frigging common
AX = Plastic boot FFS....

I dont get it... im honestly DO NOT get it... perhaps Golfs are too expensive for their boyfriends to own and they pretend Nova's are better to not hurt boyfriends feelings???  ???

 ??? ??? ???

Oooer whats up mate u not pulling in your Golf and all the Herberts in their back to front caps driving Nova's are??
Dont worry son it'll be ok, just buy a shell suit, a cap, some sovreign rings, get spots and a nova and hey presto instant success, kerching!!!

I don't have a clue. Personally I think all the cars you listed are pants and I wouldn't go to my own funeral in them. Then again I am pretty biased toward VW. :) When I bought my GTI the first thing my wife said is "it's ugly". I explained to her that I was driving a renault 19 at the time and it's picture is next to both ugly and sh!te in the dictionary. She just didn't understand.  Do we all have "golf blinders" on I happen to think my car is a very good looking car. Must not be looking at the right class of woman mate.  Maybe some of the woman on this board can help shed some light on it. What do you think Ladies?

I like the extra refinement of the mk3, the standard suspension is completely cack though, like a boat.

Dunno about u lot but girls love my good looking mk2 GTi :p. I find that alot of girls want a ride if ya know wat i mean ;)
ha ha

Nova's, corsa's, ford's, Saxo's are common and have no class like a Golf does. You can put chrome wheels on a saxo but at the end of the day its a Citroen. U get me? No offence to anyone but its true.

I think my wife has a new understanding for my Golf now. Got into a bit of a run with a pug 406 picking her up from work last night. After he cut me up and then wanted to drive 40mph he decided to try and hold me out when I went to overtake. No chance. Drop a gear throw 'em the V and to the floor with it.  ;D bye bye.

I reckon my 8v just needs a good tuning to make it go better. Must book it in for a service...........
Title: Re:What Is It With Women????
Post by: Slim Shady on 11 November 2003, 14:19
you can't get real performance improvements without opening your purse I'm afraid. :'(


A tune up would be a start - check the fuelling etc.

But at the end of the day - you need to get a gas flowed head and a cam to get noticeable  (ie REAL) difference.

and that's bye bye a grand!

The right fuel, a less restrictive air filter help - but leave the exhaust alone - as it's generally agreed that the std GTi item is better than most 'off the shelf' numbers.

hope some of that helps

allegedly when JFK went to the (then) capital of Germany in the 60's and proclaimed:

 "Ich bin ein berliner"

It didn't get the reaction he expected . . . . .

He had just said "I am a doughnut"

 :D

If so would you mind sharing as I keep getting conflicting info about inport tax,paper work required and so on. Any help would be much apriciated. My E mail is l.robert@argusfire.co.uk

My wife speeks German to an 'A' Level standard but I have found out the inportant stuff...

If I could get away from work I would go in a minute. I don't speak German but I have been to 30 different countries and speak the universal language of hand signals. :) I noticed that alot of germans speak english anyway so it shouldn't be much of a problem. Last time I was there I tried asking directions in German and the fella gave me what i needed in english.
