I was an old V-Dub thingy passenger today...

[Darren S]

Great thing it was too!

One of the guys at work bought it a few months back and I got a lift to Asda at dinner. As the boot says, it's an automatic and not too clunky, suprisingly. Felt a little weird sat on the right side as a passenger on our roads (I think its the first time I've done that?) but it had plenty of old skool charm to it.

With the engine in the rear, the front felt very light - even from the passenger seat. No doubt its a bit of a handful in the wet.

Great little car though - even if I was a little shocked that my 182 does better mpgs - lol!

Riot.

 

[Gaz.]

What the actual f**k?

 

[Mark One]

course the 182 does better MPGs! 1*2 are very economical for what they are imo.

like the dub

 

[VeinAST]

[pritchard182]

[Dan29]

[TomBear]

type 3's are the forgotten vw's imo

That's awesome! Gotta love the retro Dubs. Looks to be in ace condition too.

vee dub

as in vw

and to appreciate old cars takes class. you drive an orange car

Below the belt that, I do like old cars, I though DUB was a type of modded old car not just an old car.

 

[S23]

DUB has also become the term for the american ghetto cars, like 300C's and things like that on humungous chromes and stuff. 'Twenty inches strong' and all that shizzle.

Beat me to it.

 

[jack_davey]

hmm i swear some things just get attention because they are old, there are old cars I like, but this isn't one of them.

Aye. Switching tact now. The black gold 182 is a little too familiar these days.

Nochy's are cool as feck tbh - I love them, same for Variants (the estate ones) Simply awesome ! I don't like fastbacks though.
