Dear Philip,

I feel I must avail you off my whereabouts - I work in Pompey and live in the very nice area of Somerset.

but I agree, it is a standard pompey type reply.

Isn't DSG German for "my car accelerates and changes gear faster than your manual equivalents"? 

Sounds like a case of  "Gearbox envy" to me lol!

I do like a bit of banter, and i must say that i have not driven a DSG equiped car.  something that is on the list.  But at the mo, I will have to "slum" it in my 6 Stick shift as they say.

I'm a bit self conscious about my short arms (girls don't like it, bullied at school, discriminated against at Job interviews), I did look at having surgery to extend them to enable me to change gear on a stick shifter but when I spec'd up the options on a GTI, it worked out cheaper to get DSG   

The only good point about having short arms is I can never get at my wallet in the pub...I have deep pockets...

DSG Rocks - End of!

I thought as much Kermit!

i always pull the "I'm just off to the toilet gag!"
