Well peace and love back at ya, babe. Maybe some incense and peppermints
too. And you haven't even met me IN PERSON, where I can bribe you with
candy and beer. Though you can already get your own Canadian candy and
beer so that won't work as well...

I do think we need to lighten up. And for the record? 16Vs are best, well,
unless I'm driving my 8V. No, 8Vs are best....unless I'm driving my 16V.
Hell, I love 'em both. (but MkIs just plain rock my world)

I'm not sure if I'm new or old, well, I AM old, but yesterday was the
fourth anniversary of the fateful day when I took the very best two hour
drive of my life, in my newly purchased 16V Scirocco. Double rainbows in
the sky, crank key slowly shearing itself off as I drove....(yeah, all of
that is true too...that one let me know who was in charge right from the
beginning)

Now watch, someone will argue that crank key failure is sudden and
catastrophic, not slow, do I care? No. The "new" car f'n died when I got
it home, okay? Chill....

And they say it's only a car...
