Just looked at the stats for the board. And I am not happy. The MK5 whiners have 38,244 posts. While us awesome MK1 owners have only 19,811.
Now MK1s have been around for 30 odd years, while the MK5 has been round for almost 10 minutes. How in the world do they have so much to whine about? I mean we have drive shafts falling off every set of lights, carby problems, almost no brakes and a host of other quirks that we all know and love.
But a MK5 is a soulless thing made to never break or evoke negative emotion while stuck on the side of the road waiting for your mate with tools an more MK1 parts to get you home. So how do they have so much to talk about? I can only conclude that they are whining about things that a MK1 owner will never know - like how the dual zone climate control is something that their supermodel wife just cant understand. Or how the Pirrelli P Zeros they just got really are as good as they thought they were going to be.
We are almost 20,000 posts down but I believe we can make up the difference.
I think we need to right this wrong!
