Hi, from the cotswolds!
« on: 15 August 2012, 21:15 »
hi,

I am from the cotswolds, joined to help a friedn fix his golf, and because my partner wants her next car to be a golf so i guess i better read up on how to fix them. I drive old french cars so i am hoping that VAG reliability will come into its own here! :P

 Welcome to the nut house!

I've had a pug in the past and can say hands down that german reliability is supreme compared to french crap...but I guess age of car comes into play a little bit too.

I've had 306's, 405's, 407's, Clios, Meganes and I've gotta be honest as a driving experience they've all been fab, clean, comfortable, precise handling, bags of extras. But they've all had one thing in common..unreliability. An it did my nut in!
