 6 pages of chat on here is nothing to brag about. You drive (or maybe just sit and look at) a family hatchback not a rare classic Ferrari.

And I love my gti by the way

Exactly what i said earlier , if you had bothered to read the thread. Its a Golf . Think there must be some jealous GTI owners out there who would love a low mileage Edition 30  :evilgrin:

It also might be a rare classic one day  :innocent:

....Like the love for two of your own different children, I love my Mk5 GTI just as much as a Ferrari F12 and would love a Ferrari just as much as my Mk5 GTI.

I did read your thread - it's hardly loaded with hidden depth that I might have missed.

If you think I'm jealous of your car you should wind your neck in!

This threads great. An argument stemming from a simple photo.

Op has an edition30. With low miles. Whys he getting slated for it. Some people like cars with higher mileage and some like cars with lower mileage, each to their own!

How he enjoys his Car is upto him. How he uses his car is upto him!

C'mon, we all love golfs regardless of mileage  :drinking:

I  wish I could cycle home, have you seen Birmingham city centre. Risk my life in the car, nevermind on a bike!

Oh is this forum banter as oppose to a heated discussion?!

Last time I take your side on anything  :P

14?! No way, that's horrendous. Even though you may  glow in the dark, it's still dangerous!

Did you watch that program recently about cyclists in London? Can't remember what it was called.

Shocking viewing!

Oh and instead of cycling, why don't you go and put some miles on ur car  :popcornsoda:

I did see the programme but some of the cyclists were right idiots and did the cyclist no favours.

I am diabetic so need to cycle to exercise and hence use the car rarely .

It was peoples reactions that were more shocking - punching a guy in the face?!

Keeps you in good shape aswell. I'm not brave enough though,  I'd stick to badminton!
