I've always thought VW culture to be a bit more free'n'easy than other marque appreciation.. a bit more bohemian..this forum is a lot less cliquey and judgemental than others, most people on here seem to have a sense of humour...if i'm honest i've always thought vw folks to be cooler than all the others...less geeky......i've yet to meet a veedub owner in person who wasn't pretty friendly and easy going.... whereas vauxhall owners all seem to be a bit too aggressive to me.

"VW culture" is what this forums losing.

E38 you've got "air this air that" and not so much technical info.

This forum less of a budget it seems, used to be a really friendly and helpful place but it's getting run down but the same old boring arse licking idiots who just seem to want to put people down time and time again.

Was plenty of help, I've given jump starts, free parts, been up the road where I used to live to help time up a Golf and replace a couple of bits with one I had just scrapped.

Asked for nothing in return except possibly a bit of help moving something which he happily obliged! That's what it used to be like IMO.

Now you've got too much putting people down. You dare not post any ideas, plans or anything as it just gets slated. UNLESS you are one of the ones in the circle licking circle, in which case post whatever dodgy sh!te (speeding, dodgy plates, interesting history on number plates etc) and everyone bum licks. They tend to do jack all for you either.

VW Culture and VW Scene are two different entities in my eyes.

The culture is all about having a laugh, and enjoying the car you own with like minded friends.

The scene seems to be so-called 'players' trying to get one over each other by either doing some crazy styling, buying 'rare' wheels with mad offsets, or doing just about anything to stand out from the crowd.

Forums are bad, but I find this one, 80% of the time, is free of the attention seekers and hoop snoggers.  We have our own scene whore in Blue, but he is the type to keep his enemies close too...

Bellend, who are these arse licking idiots you talk of?

Yup, all the admins seem to be. One's incredibly unfriendly but still all seem pretty good.

But you do have a point

And that's one of the reasons I hardly post on here no more.

E38 is getting better for home builds now. Less cheque book. People actually slate stuff less! Do admittedly bum shiney wheels more though.
