Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

        • You're very lucky dude. Glad to hear you didn't get hurt. You can buy a new car.. You can't buy a new life.

          • I didn't know the mk2 didn't have airbags..that's quite a surprise to me.

            I'm so sorry to hear about that mate, and I feel even more sympathetic to learn that you didn't do it being a tool. I can't see you walking out of this positively, so whatever happens, best of luck.

              • Yeh, the best thing to do when you fall off your horse is get right back on it. Best of luck and hope you find another GTI or whatever you choose.

                  That's good to hear I'm glad they understood. I bet you half our parents wouldn't! Consider yourself lucky, in that respect anyway hehe.

                      • yeah cant beat the luxuries of a modern car. would be worth seeing what your mk2 makes at auction, cant imagine it would be much at all, if so strip it for parts, might be a quick way to recover some of your excess

                          • shattered to hear mate.

                            I lost my 'first' car (and love) in a oopsy poo as well. Lucky you were able to walk away. puts alot of things into perspective.

                            Take your time and smell the roses

                            • The car was fantastic, one of the tidiest Mk2's i've ever seen. No need to keep reattaching the exhaust either

                              But the fact that we saw you walking was the best relief ever...
