Where is everyone?

Whoa... this thread is beginning to read like a long list of eulogies. Hey, did we get foreclosed by the bank?

Sometimes I wish I bought a Polo just to still be in the VW family, but my Focus was built in Germany so that's good enough for me.
I guess I have settled down with this car, I did a few small mods here and there but nothing major. Of course, this is a VW forum so it wasn't shared.
I enjoyed my time here and learnt a lot.

As Greg said, a lot of the regulars moved on to other brands (Audi, Merc etc).

I was a bit of a stirrer in the past but posted up a few helpful bits now and then. I keep in touch with some of the tuners and some of the old regulars.

We moved to an S3 sedan late last year and I still throw up the odd post and pic in the Audi section but I'm finding less inclination to tune/modify the Audi than I did with the R.

The R ended up with a modest tune, some hardware (running gear, engine) and cosmetic stuff but I just don't have the same need/want to do that with the Audi.

There were and still are some great people on this forum. Lucas_R was fantastic help with builds etc and finding stuff. Greg was just brilliant in terms of support via messages etc. So many good people.

I still think the last good Golf was the MKVI. I guess dieselgate tarnished the name for many to some degree.

I spend much more time on the UK forums these days - wider audience and wider market for info.

I used to be on here to argue with Rocket, then he left? But now he's back. I have more VW's than ever but it's just kind of different?
VW Australia continue to suck too, so maybe that has put me off.
