Title: A Devonshire Fishwife
Post by: staceFace on 04 August 2008, 11:42
Well... not quite but hey!

I'm Stace, from good old sunny Devon.

Currently driving a a black Mk3 golf gti 8v. She is called Phattie. Had her since last november, and i love driving her. She is my 3rd Dub, and im sure there will be plenty more :)

I seem to have a small obsession with VW's, to the extent of having it tattooed on my wrist... twice. :)

Anyways, looking forward to meeting some new friendly faces.

Hope everyone has a good day

Well i hope i never have to ask advice much, in the hope that my little dub behaves.

The current one is for sale. fancy a vr or going a little bit more retro over to the mk2 again.

Now where is your dub love?

problem with the VR is i know a few people having problems with there's. it seems the mk3 is the most problematic.

either that or everyone i know is damn unlucky! lol

There is a healthy emnity between the marques on here!
Mk 2 are boneshakers
Mk3 are boats
Mk4 are granny cars
Mk5 - well not thought of one yet!

Well considering the Mk2 section on here is the biggest they cant be trouble free!
generally though a vr is the least troublesome of the Mk 3's.

wel arent you vr lot a lucky lot. I got my mk3 when i was 19. and i just couldnt afford the £1000 insurance.

Although saying that i can now insure a vr, or a rado vr or g60 for well under 1k fully comp.
the joys of being a female :)

oh and i do believe you missed one out..... mk1?

never say anything derogatory about a Mk 1. Its the original and the classic. Was the best too!
