i agree ive had a few cars going back and have the VW bug. i got my mrs into it by getting her a polo when she passed her test and shes even given it a name which i find funny.

OK well I still use my car to travel. The only difference is I no longer like or appreciate driving.

It hasn't affected my life as a whole though.  :grin:

Vw is defiantly a way of life. Lots of people don't understand that and it's crazy hard to try and explain.
    scoots are my other passion but vdubs rule worldwide most scoot heads just love vws scenes are very similar too cant wait till summer

I'm bored with my 1996 tdi - I get in, it starts, it's stops, and does 650 miles from the tank

Missus likes it as I hardly spend any time tinkering and it costs peanuts to run  :grin:

My first golf was mk3 off eBay 1.4. £250 bargain. Since then I wanted a gti so when the 1.4 died i got an 8v mk3. The shape is retro but stylish. Plus it's modern enough to drive every day, ele windows ect. Yea they might suck up a bit of cash, they may drink fuel but so what. I love my golf. I'm proud to drive it.
