We don't get Alfas in NA, Rob.
Nice pick, Tif. I have driven the 500 quite often (it's an Autoshare favourite), and I really want to try the Abarth. Still haven't seen one on the road. Reckon they're all up in Woodbridge.

Sweet ride Mike - I'll stick with my GTI for now...and no Lor, Abarths arent all over Woodbridge, even though I'm in Richmond Hill...right now all over its the 500s - new flav of the month I guess...
02-12-12, 04:33 PM
Funny, there aren't that many 500's on the road around here. If I see one 3-4 times in a week that's a lot. Only seen one Abarth so far.

Lovely car Tif. What mark GTI do you have?
Since we're all getting new cars, I did the same last week, 3 years of owning a Mini Cooper (not easy with 1 child/1 dog) I went and got this:

Well, not that actual one, but same colour and mine has kid flaps (5 door).
Great to be back in a Golf GTI.

Why did you have to ruin this Italian car conversation with your boring Golf
I might have to sell my Alfa GT
I've got a new job and I will be driving 100km a day. The GT just needs too much gas.

Nice car Tif. 160 horses in that little tin can will be a lot of fun. Let me know how you get on with your new wheels FC, had my eye on one of them for my next ride too.

So far it's a blast, full leather (heated seats are handy in this weather!) and front/rear parking sensors. She drives just like my MK5 GTi but a bit better! 
I went with finance as there's some great deals out at the moment on the MK6 Golfs as the MK 7 Golf is coming out next year and they're trying to clear out the older stock.
On the used VW are giving 2 yrs free servicing and 500 deposit contribution. Just need to haggle aggressively with the sales guy.

I have (until March) the MK6, FC. Except grey and a 4 door. Great car. I'm sure you'll love it. You got the 6-speed, I hope.

DSG is faster, innit?
Something nice about a regular manual gearbox, though.

Took my car to a local garage for an MOT today. Not my usual back street grease monkey, a proper national chain with hundreds of branches. Car failed it's test. Man tells me it needs £240 worth of repairs. Drive half a mile down the road to another garage. Car passes with one minor advisory!

nice fc, how much a month is that on finance? roughly...
was thinking bout swapping my mk4 GTI for a more economical newer polo, but I like the polo GTI, and that basically has the same engine, so wouldn't be down sizing, so yeah.. now im just driving round under 3k rpm to boost fuel economy, lol
