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,

      Agreed.

      Especially the 5dr Golf.

      I've only ever seen 1 Polo GTI driven by a girl and I see it most days driving past my work at Hamilton... number plate 'DYE'. She looks hot too

        Yeah - I saw her once in Bulimba - black car from memory? I think she has also blacked out the VW badge on the grille.

              Sigh…..I'm old and my memory is going.

              Or maybe it was a different car and the rego sounds familiar?

              Dunno - too much over the years.................

                  Here's something I've noticed over the past few days.

                  Does the GTI just attract ****heads? This is my first (for lack of a better term) sports car.

                  There seems to be no end of fools who as soon as they see me coming up alongside them, decide they need to show me what the rear of their car looks like by flying past me and cutting me off. With the ocassional wheel spin, looking at me in their rear view mirror. I keep thinking it's just my area which are known for these type of drivers, this is nothing new. But now I feel as though my car is like a magnet and I'm being targetted. I never had this issue in my Lancer.

                  Anyone else noticed this and had a similiar experience?

                      People tail gate my GTI really badly, the funniest bit is they are too busy concentrating on the back of my car to notice the corner and assume they don't need to brake either.

                          certainly do my friend. get idiots in jap imports revving at the lights trying to get my attention for a race. i just give it a launch off the line and leave them in the dust. the funniest part is after you've been off the gas for quite a while, they all of a sudden come screaming past thinking you are still racing and they've caught and past you. hahahahah.....virgins.

                            yeah i get tailgated and i get people racing past me. i take it as a compliment. today i had someone in a swift sport tailgate me while driving at a normal speed (although he kept falling behind me at roundabouts because i barely had to slow down )
