Coming to the other side
« on: 26 June 2007, 12:09 »
Greetings ladies & gents.
Made my way over to this site as I'm plotting to leave the world of Minis behind and take up with a Golf. Will soon be looking for a clean, unmodded 3-door MkII 8v for £1-1.5k (much more of which soon no doubt).
Some of you will know my good friend Nick aka Horney. He is to blame for this!
So can we start with you all telling me why a Golf will be so much more fun than a Mini?
Cheers.....

Golf GTI: good enough as it is
