i try and try but i just cant get into the Golf scene very well. With exception to this site i just dont like it too much. I guess im just too much of a boy racer. Hopfully GTI inters will change that  ;D

your not gonna be the same person if inters is anything like vw action fielder, it changed my life in '98 and im still stuck in the vw bubble - 6 months and your life will have a new outlook. just a hint but u will probably no longer have a girlfriend, your bedroom will look like a vw parts warehouse and your mum will be kicking u out each day but we dubbers love it  ;D

i use to be on club gti before branching off to other forums..... i found c gti to be very exile atmosphere and most people would start arguments
what a laugh utter s*** thats what most of there users talk thats alls people on c gti do! and most c gti users ---------

1. dont have driving licences.
2. dont own a volkswagen.
3. post there views and if your view is slightly different from theirs, there is a full scale war!

most of them are just gti wanna be's who are too goody goody for this world! :D if the gti does as people say it does and goes like a rocket maybe they can all get in one and go to another universe!!! ;D

There are quite a few people on club gti that only own drivers, and dress them up with gti badges  :D

I know exactly what you mean about the CGTI forum. The problem is that it is CGTI only in name, and that's where it ends.

I have had a few cases recently where I have made a perfectly valid comment to a technical query, only to have it shouted down as supid and not knowing what I am talking about, probably by some 17yr old with no licence, car or knowledge!

There is quite a lot of truth in the comment about lack of real knowledge as well, as it seems that some newbies as for info one week, then are preaching it as gospel the next, even though it is total rubbish.

I have got fed up with all the mindless posts as well on the forum, and the childish comments that are used as replies. The sooner the rubish stops flowing the better.

It used to be a great place to get info and have informative discussions, but it seems to have bee taken over by the 'max power' mentallity, if that it the right way to put it.

This forum is very friendly and extremely helpful to people, and I contribute as and when I can to subjects that I have some knowledge about, ahving had VW's for the past 19 years, and GTI's for 15 of those, not GTI wanna-be boyed-up motors!

Totally agree John, having done most jobs on a golf, i found myself being shouted down by some 'members', i expect you know who they are.
Unfortunately i don't like putting up with it, so i got barred for giving them the abuse they deserved!  :D

Its the same as the RS owners club, and the smaller ford related sites, you will always get the main, hardcore members who can be a litle bit stuffy or by the book on those sites...I always find forums such as this, a better place for general banter, and theres normally someone who has attempted a mod or repair that can help out anyway  ;D

Anyone up for a meet up at Inters then ??
