            LOL. Been there, done that. Does a lot of things a manual gearbox Golf 7 can’t do though.

            (Although not anything that might involve rain, Bunnings or more than 2 people)

              Ahem, it’s a 7.5 lol. Speaking of, I’m still waiting for Wally to show us his Grid (that sounds pretty lewd, oops)

                Hahaha. True. Mine was white (best colour). I like the 7.5R wheels over my 7.

                  Haha, I had a choice of white or white if I wanted a manual. It certainly looks better than my last white car (an 89 Camry), even if it’s not as fast as my last red car.

                    Yeah, the same basic choice I had 2.5 years ago!

                            Just over $30k. Mechanically perfect, low mileage, 2 owners from new (I’m #3 if you ignore the importer). Full service history (which is rare for AU import cars). All the right options ticked from the factory as well; it was a top of the range car!

                            There were 4 other people lined up behind me to buy it. So it’s 1/3rd fun, 1/3rd nostalgic, 1/3rd investment (it won’t lose money).
