i think it needs the 90% drug dealer tints to help the sides and rear

when I see an image of it i see it with step ladders tied to the roof and ACME Alarms & Security plastered on the side driven by a guy with a short sleeved shirt in school blue and a clip on tie who has inadvertently managed to get on the ring

Merc and BMW yes, the saloons/estate/Avants scream middle management imo, Audi to a lesser extent but it's still there, the hatches aren't quite as bad but thats not what we're talking about here.
VW are a classless brand, that's why they're so succesful, Skoda however although their product is much improved there is still a stigma around the brand imo, they're slightly cheaper than the equivalent VW but when you sit in one it becomes aparent why.

That's your perception and that's ok.

VWs (a semi-premium brand) are driven by those in the lower pecking order and who cannot afford BMWs, Audis, Mercedes. Audis are driven by cocks. It is also accepted that most VWs are bland. Perhaps that is their charm. But does it all really matter? One cuts one's cloth accordingly.

One man's meat is another man's poison. The Golf R Hearse is my poison.

There is no need for you to be so confrontational, personal and nasty. We are talking about cars and you are becoming personal. I don't give a toss what people think about brands. I buy the car that suits me and I like. Hope you do the same.

That's the general consensus not what I think. Maybe we are at cross purposes. I would rather buy a Golf than an A3 or a BMW 1 Series or a Mercedes A Class. So if people think I am part of the lower pecking order, then so be it. I basically don't give a damn if they judge me by the car I drive.

Good night, sleep tight etc!
