"Now that you have automatic does that mean I can drive it..." - AUTOMATIC!!!!! - ITS DSG - have you got an hour, take a seat....

She never wanted to drive my TT as she reckoned the windows where too small and you couldn't see the end of the bonnet but for some reason she thinks the GTI will be easier to drive and park  :angry:

Mine has a Audi A3 3.2 Quattro DSG.

I was driving it on the weekend and had a bit of fun with a WR1 Impreza. I commented on how impressed I was at us keeping up when he clearly booted it. Her words were "Oh I always beat the Imprezas"

I was a little impressed with that.

My mom says she hates speed and all that. But everytime I clean the car I notice the following small things:

1. The trip computer seems to say the words THRASHED on it. Something to do with the cr@p fuel consumption reading?
2. She hates loud music in the car. And yet... Whenever I switch the dam thing on its full blast?? And its not the gala or turn on function thats set wrong.  :nerd:
3. Leave her with the car for a week or two and when you clean it... Run your finger down the bumper. Im sure that rubber and not dirt.. (No lies)

My poor father has been banned from driving the golf. I still vote woman are hypocritical.

Some gems here, neither to do with Golfs but at least they're German cars:

1. Friend of mine phoned last night. His (blonde) wife had reversed *his* BMW X5 out of the driveway. Unfortunately she managed to catch one of the gateposts on the way out. She obviously decided not to do things by halves as she scraped *all the way along* the nearside.  :cry:

2. I'm working with a motor insurance client at the moment, had a look at some total losses, this one is a classic:

On an 07 plate, incident occured 3.3.07 (so the car was no more than three days old!) - S4 quattro, so it had all the traction controls etc:

Straight country road, driver (female) loses control and hits wall, writing the car off  :shocked: :cry:

3. Was in Lytham St Annes the other week. Girl driving an Audi Q7, chatting away on her mobile (not handsfree). Thing is, she hadn't unfolded the wing mirrors, they were still tucked in ...  :angry:

Before any feminists have a go at me - I understand that women tend to have more, small *whoops* accidents like parking dents whereas men tend to have fewer, but far more serious, accidents.

The wife's pretty good, she's into cars a bit as well and does understand how much my car means to me but I still get it now and then:

Go on, p!ss off to your 1st wife
I love driving your gti
Go on! race him! take him out!
Darling, can you slow down please or I'm gonna be sick in you car
Slow down! Slow down! :angry: and then she starts hitting me when I don't

I guess it just depends on the time of the month  :wink:


I say:

Darling, just keep away from the kerbs please.
I want an ed30.
