The VW Driveway Fleet...

Got a Polo GTi on a 2 year lease. This is the only picture I have of it so far :)

It's fun.

GTI's are great cars. Few changes for me, the blue Mk5 Gti was unusually a pile of crap so sold on. Replaced with a B5.5 Passat Wagon, 2.8 V8 4motion in good nick with w8 interior. Becoming my favourite car at the moment in the wintry conditions.
The 911 was sold after 7 years, just wasnt getting used for anything other than commute so went for a Scirocco r to replace it as we can get both kids and dogs in it. Must admit very impressed with it out the box. Will be getting lowered soon, different wheels and remap but thats it I reckon.

You don't need a Kleinmetall dog-guard for that B5 do you? Trying to give one away to save it from landfill, but no takers...
 
Just found this thread.

Does this count? Little and Large together! My wife was out in the Golf estate when I took it though, so couldn't get the three bears in one photo!

Well, that didn't last long, traded it in today and put down a deposit on this.
Loving how it looks so the only plans are a Racing Developments air intake and probably a Revo stage one engine and gearbox map.

Man after my own heart! Had the mk7 R in manual regret selling it and wanted another convinced I was getting the mk7.5 but went to heritage and drove a new mk8 wow!
Wasn’t to sure on the styling to begin with but has grown on me now!

I like the look of the mk8 but it's the dash that I think I might struggle with, although from some of the reviews I've seen, you do get used to it.
I was watching a review of the new Tiguan on YouTube last night and VW seemed have back tracked slightly and ditched the haptic buttons on the new model.
 
Yes this was another reason I was adamant I was getting the 7.5 because I also read reviews on the haptic buttons but was told it was on the earlier models but they’ve now resolved and to be fair I’ve had it 3 months now and no problems what so ever once you get your head around it!
