My VW parts beat your Opel parts, hands down! :p
I dunno - all my Opel parts are still on my Opel - they have this tendency not to just fall off. Strange...

Don't surf photobucket, facebook, flickr and other fun sites at work ! :cool:

+1 - how about uploading the pics to the photo's section on MyBB?
Sorry, I don't support discrimination between local and international packets. All packets are created more or less equally.

You owe me 10 bucks. I never worked for a financial institution or have owned a Toyota and never will in my short remaining life. My three VWs will outlast me by far. :p
Three VWs ? Lets see, you are just shy of half way to a full Opel and about a quarter on your way to a Mercedes/BMW. Don't worry, you'll get there someday.

why would you(anyone) take photos of a tow-truck hauling a golf around?

Whenever I see breakdowns I usually take a video and then grab some frames from it. 100% of the time it is a VW. I sometimes skip the odd one or two when I am in a hurry - see, my car is really fast and powerful and requires some attention when I am driving. Maybe someday you will know what it feels like to drive such a car :cool:

Well, from the topic I hope you would have worked out it is an Astra. In my case an 8+ year old 1.6 worth about R45k - yet it outlasts and outlooks most VeeBoredomYous on the road.

Not a greedy person by nature, I don't have to underpin my statue with a Benz/Blik Met Wiele and speaking of Opels, I normally fix stripped cambelts on them for a hobby. ;)

No need, the old 1.6 beats most VWs anyway.

stop generalising Roux! u know the TDi, GTi and Scirocco(spelling) will leave stonechips on your windscreen.

Astras a bit heavier that Citi Golfs as well right? I liked the Astra. Took one over 200kmph the one time on an open road.

Sure, a lot of VAGs will out run it - but then you still have to factor in the the fact that they are common as dirt and they are volkswagens.... wagens.... of the volk.

And BMWs and Mercs aren't common right?

LOL...there is no excuse for lack of taste :rolleyes: :D

The reason why the Astras are so rare is that so few people wanted to buy them in the first place...I sweated bullets trying to sell the bloody things...gave up and went back to VW where I could at least sell the product!! :D
