I understand what you get.... my family ask why I run an old wreck!! (despite the fact its in better condition both mechanically and bodywise than most 5 year old cars!)

The problem is that to most people ours Mk2's are just 20 year old cars.

You either get dubs, or you dont.

I hate that!!!

I went for MOT last year and mechanic called my valver an old banger!!!!!

It's in great nick, was well annoyed.

the simpel soultion is to declare your golf to be a TOY   that way you don't have to justify anything you do to it or anything it dose.   because it is a toy no one can argue against that.  hell i'm thinking of buying an old omega as a daily and a trailer to drag the golf about on so i don't have to wrry about breacking it when playing.
