That's right, I'm on the V6 hype now.

[Jason_E]

Okay, it's only a 2.4. But it's much more power and torque than I've become used to. Actually loving it too! Had to pick it up from the other side of birmgham, and on the way back (even with the M6 Toll on route ) I managed to average 47MPG. Bitchin'

It's a 1999 T Plate, with 138k on the clock. SE Spec with full cream leather and all the other usual toys. Cost me all of £1k with 6months tax and MOT. Well happy with that! Insurance is affordable too.

No good pictures yet...

Plans are to get it cleaned up, fix little niggles. Then see how I feel from there. Kinda enjoying having a car I can just waft along in. And if I get bored, the loud pedal will quickly empty my wallet in exchange for smiles.

Should have kept the Golf you massive bender.

Welcome to middle management, circa 1998.

 

[-J-]

Same as my brothers (Although his is a 1.8SE with Black Leather), really nice sofa to get from A - B and the build quality is nice and solid, very dull though.

Have to agree with Turkish, the Golf was much more 'interesting'

 

[Jason_E]

I fancied something dull but with a nice engine and comfy, pretty much fits the spec.

 

[Hixle]

Comfy until you add 'stance'?

Nice barge if not a slightly odd choice for an 18 year old!

 

[Ian_182]

How the hell did you get 47mpg out of a 2.4 V5....

It will blend in well though.

At the moment it looks like your Dad's poor and you've borrowed his car.

Welcome to middle management, circa 1998.

LOOOL

this is exactly what i would think

a cool barge though, not a fan of cream leather though

 

[Adam.]

 

[Englebert]

Can't believe 47mpg!

Will be interesting to see what you do with it...

 

[ipodsandguns]

Hype?

You seem to have lost track of whats fly.

 

[Feirny]

That looks bloody awful, you paid too much it seems.

 

[Waitey]

Well that's just plain awful.

 

[Charlie.]

I'm sure you and your crew will scene it up to f**k, but at the moment it looks s**t, and you no doubt will look s**t driving it.

 

[alex-avfc]

Manz on hype!

 

[_Tom]

Please tell me this is a daily and you still have the MK1?

 

[Goodj]

Mo' cylindersMo' respect.

 

[Winston]

Failbarge

 

[lbrench]

like it but prefer the golf

 

[adele_90]

It has potential. I did like the golf tho . Who's your insurance with?

 

[Jon.G]

I can't tell if this is a serious thread :/ WTF?

 

[Saner]

You looked cooler when you were rocking your mums clio

 

[Adam.]

£1.6k to insure......LOL

 

[Rob]

Now's the point where you wish you didn't turn the golf into "that" whilst you sit there and have to take a big loss on it surely?

I'm not sold on the new waft wagon, but you'll get bored and "Jason" it soon enough.

 

[Gaz.]

I miss being young and dumb.

 

[Christopher]

£1.6k to insure......LOL

Wut? Really?

For that?

 

[dudes45]

Wow.. You guys are nice

It's not a bad car.. It's okay for the price.. Nice buy mate looks pretty good!

 

[Bodge!]

You cannot be serious re: the cost of insurance?

Youf of today.

 

[JCC]

It better be stupidly impractical to drive sharpish or you're hellagay.

 

[Aluco]

Lol. Oh you, you always buy s**t

 

[VeinAST]

Looks fine Jason! Nice buy. If it was an accord I'm sure you'd have uber respect.

Still have the Golf?

 

[Dafthead]

Needs painting gold IIRC

 

[midge]

I had one of these, average of around 25mpg for me (same v6 engine) it was faster than i expected it to be, but was very dull, its gone now, still have the spare wheel from it though.

 

[CCrispUK]

Should have kept the Golf you massive bender.

This.

But audi looks like a nice daily!

 

[Cliotoby]

What on earth are you doing with cars?

The golf was slightly cool.

 

[LowLife.]

I thought this would be good when I saw 'V6'.


I feel like I have just been told Father Christmas doesn't exist.

Funniest thing I've read in ages. Cheered me up, thanks

It's all about straight 6s, but wafting about is just dandy.
