Good old Petrocelli

Wonder if he ever finished that house???

I suspect he wants to sort out the mirror image badging on his Challenger first.

I'm off to that 'Pit Stop Clinic' at Porsche incidentally.

Thanks to Mr Camp for the head up.

If anyone wants a 'cheap' MKIV 2L GTi, there is one thats been sat at work for a year. tis an '03' in black with full leather.

Love to hate it.

Utterly, utterly dreadful 'steer', but quite a fabulous slogger. For some reason the 150 feels like a much more refined car above 90mph than the 130 ever did.

Mine's got all the toys too, including cruise, climate, leather, bum warmers and six disc changer. Which helps a lot.

It's really all the car any man could ever need.

We had a Golf 5 130derv with all the toys when someone kindly rammed Helen's Astra off the road a few years back. She wanted on badly after that.

Nice one, should be a decent day out. Might cost you though...

They're great really. Ignoring the 'sporty' pretensions entirely, the more potent TDIs are the pick of the MKIV range.

2.0 and 1.8T GTIs are a waste of time.

Although, curiously, mine is also badged 'GTI' and it's not a naff retrofit either.

I'd have a 2.8 4Motion with all the toys in MkIV flavour. Even though it'd be epically st.

Have we had this?

Horrible fuel economy though for very little in terms of forward propulsion. Part of the MKIV TDI raison d'etre is the ability to whisk along at a decent lick, whilst actually using zero fuel.

But wouldn't I get bad bum AIDS in a 150?

Only in mine, because I actually have AIDS.
