Bought me a rocco!!!!
« on: 15 May 2006, 12:40 »
After a mammoth journey yesterday, setting off from bath at 7am to go to Liverpool to see a car for the gf, and then back to manchester to see a car for me, I ended up getting home with my Rocco just in time for Top Gear  :smiley:

Have t say it drives so much nicer than i was expecting, and has a lot of poke considering its just the 1.8 gt.

So now I can take my golf off the road for a coupld of months and sort her out properly  :smiley:
