Nice! Love that color on the Golf wagon. Really understated and classy car. Your wife has a great taste.
Can’t remember are these 5 speeds or 6? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Nice. I wondered what these are like.
I think they have a bit of ride height, so I worried they handled like a top heavy pig. |

Equ ... just curious have you ever counted how many cars you’ve owned ?
It has to be a lot !! I always keep track in my phone ... just wondering if you keep track too. |

It’s really too bad they didn’t put the 2.0 in these, but what does it have? 1.8?

1.8... It's just nice little engine that doesn't beat anybody - especially off the line - but it is very smooth. She got 28mpg on 93 with the GTI and hardly ever used the available 300hp (either commuting or driving the dog around). If she can get anything close to that on 87, it's already a win. Delta is like 60c/gallon. |

Nice car, equ.
May you have many enjoyable, trouble-free miles !! My nephew bought a new VW CC a few years ago with a manual. I really liked driving it.
