WOW Was not expecting that.
« on: 14 November 2013, 08:06 »
Well i was out with my misses and little one last night, just pulled in to toys r us had to be real careful as the had done that road narrowing thing with high kirbs so i was cautious. Once safe from the kirbs a van pulled beside me from other side of road as i was driving big smile on his face "Hi mate is that a VR6" Very excited he was i replied "na this is just a 16v" with a smile as he was taking a interest in my car.
 
Then he ignored me and drove off  :cry: are 16v's that bad lol not evan worth a conversation through the window of a dark toys r us car park :whistle:.

I must admit this was quite rude but i did not go there for a chat so what was i expecting  :rolleyes:

 :huh:

What are you worried about? Do you like your car?
If so why give a F**K about what others think!

I just find it funny that he blanked me because it was not VR6  are they that rare and good for people to pull me to aside?

I was always told bad things about them engines i have no experience of one so can comment but if it has any build quality like the 16v must be a good engine.

Thought this was a vr6 thread  :sad:

A real enthusiast prefers the 16v over the vr6.  :lipsrsealed:

Some kid thought my old 1.4 SE was a VR6- he had the same disappointment when I told him it wasn't even a GTI  :grin:
