...first time without a VW or even a car for that matter!
« on: January 04, 2012, 01:59:56 pm »
Howdo forumites  :drinking:

So I sold the .:R32 for a respectable amount, bought a discovery hse for mrs cherry...made me realise i was bored of my defender so sold that...now for the first time since i was 17 i am now without a ride!  :confused:

its been a few weeks now, i can use the disco if i need it but to be honest ive not missed the driving especially when i can get ferried around by others

part of the problem was i simply didnt know what to buy, nothing out their got my motoring juices flowing... the mrs even told me to buy a porsche... but no, just dont fancy it

until one night over xmas i was visited by three ghosts........





























nah just kidding  :grin:


so its time to go retro i think, something a bit more show than go with a gentle topping of marmite styling. So there i was well lubricated on crabbies ginger ale and mooching through youtube and rediscovered a video from agessssss ago

now decided i want a Bora  :fighting2: no idea why but i do

cheap.... easy to mod... and if i fettle it just right then they look pretty bang tidy



most of the cars are way ooop norf for me but when the right specimen surfaces i'll be acquiring it for some cherry flavoured tuning

Making cars sticky as per usual, do boats too now so never a dull moment  :smiley:

Last year was so hectic that this year I'm easing off a bit, I got to the point there was never enough hours in the day so it had to change

Plus the troll/spam posts on here need an increase  :grin:

Hows you? Not seen you since FOS and even then I was too busy to chat  :ashamed:

Hey VC, how's it all hangin dude?  :happy2:

Always loved the VW saloons from the MK2 Jetta's to the Bora right back to the MK5 Jetta! Something about the saloon shape that is just so right! Maybe all my years watching touring cars back in the early 90's!  :driver:

2011 bora WTF
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2011-VOLKSWAGEN-BORA-/300629849600?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item45feef7600#ht_1692wt_1219

It's still in production in china and Canada with both having subtle differences on the front styling...one ugly and the other a different ugly  :sick:
