Re: Sics Consolidated Faded Moderns Thread - 2003 E320 & 2006 Golf Mk5 GTI

I'm a proper pervert for these, came very close to buying one last year - it was the graphite blue which i think is 100x better than your blue, but then it didn't have the sumptuous interior - which must be a rarity???

Yeah boi, dragged it home last night. Doesn't run..

Probably runs, but cambelt/balance belts are 15 years old and my bollocks aren't big enough to spin it over.

Less than a year, which explains its surprising shininess despite living in a hedge. With a new rear beam it now resides on my drive with a fresh ticket :)

Long time no see. Meet the 250 quid van. Cost of living crisis has escalated.

Re: Classless cars that say nothing about you? Is there any? Were there ever any?

Good shout for Saabs, although not sure is classless is the right term as they don't seem to occupy every class, just the extremes. Either ageing eccentrics or turbo-nutter-bastard cheapskates. Feel like I belong to the latter party, especially seeing as I bought a dog dick red one.

Call me a flash bastard if you want, but I'd have to have done something pretty bad to engage in the hair-shirt penitence of buying a new Dacia.

Yep, I reckon any Mk5-onwards Golf GTI fits the bill. Of course any sign of a window tint or lowered spring marks them out as a scrote-mobile, like every! fucking! one! I've tried to buy recently.
