DUB 0 Posted September 2, 2006 My misses at first wasn't happy / then realised that no matter what she said it didn't matter cause i wasn't listening - to busy looking at the car or here reading about the car........... all she says now is it hurts to get in and out every now and then............. + how comfortable the ride was on long journies {asleep} "other people just dont understand" :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CazzaVR 0 Posted September 2, 2006 Mum always calls it a Corolla :roll: One of my mates used to say that my blackberry VR was pink, and he also said the engine sounded muted, even though I was running a K&N induction kit at the time. He was just Jealous. Oh yeh, he drove an old Astra :wink: Most people either don't know what it is or say things like 'I always wanted one of those!'.

Timo. 0 Posted September 2, 2006 Had the, 'nice scirocco', quite a few times. Really annoys me that. Get, 'I always wanted of them' most of the time. And, 'Damn thats in good condition'. Anyone that hasn't got a clue about them, usually falls over in shock when I say its got a 2.9 litre v6 under the bonnet!!!! T. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted September 2, 2006 and some twit in a vr6 corrado said"whats wrong couldn't u afford a proper corrado" lol - and then with your tuned G60, you proceed to leave him behind once the G60 gets into its stride ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
