is it a real mk1 gti?

[Lima]

That's Man&Golfs car. Pretty sure it just has a GTI grille???

[R'chitect]

A rare sight to be sure: Fiat 126, or niki. A car that can claim a faster quarter mile time that it's 0-100 time.

that's hilarious!

I saw what I think was a Passat CC this morning on the harbour bridge, but the tail lights looked different. It was 100% a VW sedan so I've either forgotten what a CC looks like, or it was something strange that I don't know about...?

[Lima]

[IML337]

ah, that's what I saw - thanks

I don't think I've ever actually seen one in person so it looked odd

Tails let it down as well

Not as bad as Jetta wagon though

[vwlatino]

spotted a courier dirver reverse into the lambo while parked outside work here in marrickville, massive dent right above the lhd taillight, right on the corner, size of a cricket ball.

Driver is lebbo and trying to get out of it.

shame as we have the cctv footage, number plate etc, him clearly hitting the car.

[mikinoz]

Sort of amusing.

Where in M'ville are you located?

[vwlatino]

shepherd st, near the corner of addison rd.

[mikinoz]

You'd be working 1.5 blocks from my house...

Is this the car I'd see dropping kids at Newington Boys some days?

[vwlatino]

do you live up along/just off addison rd a bit? near the markets?

not dropping of boys though, he has 2 girls.

[steve2gtis]

Spotted red MkVI on the latest St George ad. Didnt take long.

[Ken VAG]

Spotted this evening a silver mkV (possibly a GT) with green P plates and Audi TT rims on the back of a flatbed. I'm still trying to work out if I liked the car / rim combo.

These rims:

[Lima]

They look very similar to the wheels on mrs mikinoz's car.

I reckon they work really well, although their car is black which probably suits the look better.

[mikinoz]

that car belongs to Mischa from around the golfmkv parts. Dropped it pretty low, maybe he sumped it?

And the rims look hot on the black, no question!

EDIT PICS

Mischa.

Ours

Nah, we live on Newington Rd, near Philpot St.

Maybe I need to introduce our 8 year old son to said daughters!

[Lima]

[steve2gtis]

Sold, huh Liam? Sad to see an old cruiser go. If you need a spare set of wheels let me know. MkII is sitting at home doing nothing.

[Lima]

Yeah, sold and on its way to its new home in Melbourne.

Thanks for the offer, too.

[mikinoz]

vale.

[Tank Engine]

Nicely timed though - about 6 weeks to the Weissenberger?

Nah, probably another 9 weeks+ I'd say. Doesn't get built for another 10 days or so.

Well selling 2nd hand in this market is no doubt a relief all the same.

spotted a black sportback today and the leds were like eyebrows, running at the top of the headies not the bottom like the rest of the audis.....will yours be like that, lima?

also spotted S8N kkmobile turning onto king st at lunchtime...
also spotted a ducati behind me at the lights, he stalled it, then pushed it into the gutter where he was trying to start it in vain, whilst the traffic waited for him ( i kid you not )

Honestly I believe you! I had another stall at the traffic light today. Whilst I didn't have issue with restarting, a self-stalling Ducati is apparently a common occurance as I have learn on the Ducati forum. So is one that struggles to start when cold (like mine).
