They are brilliant. Just the right balance between old skool interaction and a reasonable level of comfort and practicality. I often wonder what youngsters brought up on modern, cosseting, high tech cars would make of our relatively slow, underbraked and sometimes unreliable little cars.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

First GTD for me,

Some VW History -

1991 VW Vanagon 2.1 Carat (US) Import - loved this dearly - but it's an old VW Bus 'nuff said.
2012 VW California Beach - Dealer Demo - still miss her
Some kind of basic Polo I hired whilst waiting for the GTD - one word - awful

And VW GTD delivered last October - it's an awesome car, in ideal world I would have liked the GTE to be less of a emperors new clothes car or the E Golf to come without range anxiety - but that's for the future I guess.

My Dad had many interesting cars growing up, Lotus Elan 2+2 JPS Edtion, P Plate Scimitar with Ford 3.0 V6, Alfa Sud, Black Audi Coupe and for a while a VW Scirocco Mk1 - Silver on a V plate - just the GLS trim, not a storm or GTI, just had a 1.5 engine from a Golf and a Golf interior, very quick for it's time.

Two for me - a 2002 mk4 GT TDI 130 3 door with the sport pack to give 16" wheels and sports suspension like the 150 had, in bright red, bought as a dealer stock car..... and a 2014 mk7 GTi PP 3 dr with nav and winter pack, in tornado red, bought as a dealer stock car.....

There is a theme - the other theme is neither was / will be kept long, not because of anything to do with the car but because circumstances change and I needed something different.
