Title: A nice couple of days
Post by: Damien.wrl on July 28, 2020, 03:46:55 PM
Have a loner for a few days, supposed to keep my mind off of an impending bill.. Why do you mess around with that 32vt/R20 malarkey.. sell a kidney/child  and get one of these family wagons,... 2.9v6 440 bhp, shocks a few Qashqis..... poor old mum won’t ever be the same ... tomorrow I am going to find out what some of the buttons do..

Just had a major Beetle “S” dealer service, going to clean it up and sell it if you are interested ?

What''s the replacement going to be? A proper Beetle S !
But seriously the Porsche looks great. My fave would be a 356B or C tho. I recall going to see one in need of restoration for circa £2.5k in th 80s.

I'd bloody love to (as would Paulina) but we've just put all our savings into a 'sensible' family car!

Going to rip out the 3.2 engine from the tt and drop in the Golf lump ........No,  the tt is the daily , Golf hides elsewhere

I was genuinely impressed for a second.

Bring the TT and Mk2 to up to me for a while, I'll take care of your parking space issues...

Nice cars Damien, I fancy a 996 (just a Carrera will do me). Maybe I'll sell one of my Corrado's for one :-D

Any pictures of the mk2? Have you got the tear drop alloys on yours - can't quite see. I'm wondering whether to refurb mine.
