I’ve put 220,000km on my Mk.IV Golf since I bought it brand new and it hasn’t let me down even once. All it’s ever seemed to need was my own half-assed DIY maintenance program (oil, tires, brakes, belts, light bulbs at whatever time after the recommended interval I remember to do them).

I’m just going to hold my breath until VW comes up with a new Thing.

They backed away from the idea when they heard it might drive your pappy to drinkin.

Maybe I watch too much Roadkill but what I see here is the start of the Draguar’s German cousin.

Nice, but why can’t I just have an electric Golf right now?

Whatever, just let the Quattro do its work.

I’m just doing the math here but the car is on its third set of tires in the 210,000km (130,ooo miles) that I’ve put on it. I think it was the second set that took a nail just a few days after I bought them.

I probably have about 50, 000 miles on at least one of these plugs on my Golf.

No, it’s as chic as ten anuses.

Right? It’s a machine designed to be shot at so as long as you don’t drown after a low speed flip like that you ought to be fine.

“Because that’s what was holding us back from making the phone waterproof” is the only answer I’ll accept for why a headphone jack has to go.

And all this time I assumed it was Gasoline/Turbocharged/Injected. Learn something every day, I guess.

And so Torch takes his first step to becoming Immortan Joe.

If you want more power in a nifty package, this thing should have a turbocharged Corvair engine out back. Double the death trap mystique.

When I was a high school senior, Porsche 356 coupes were generally unloved. Cabriolets were going for what I thought was big money and Speedsters were in the stratosphere, but I digress.

How do we know this isn’t just a mule for the next generation of Ram? It wouldn’t be the first Jeep-bodied non-Jeep test mule.

I just want that sidecar to be made into some glorious microcar.

She put a lot of effort into carefully crafting a vagina sandwich to make an inaccurate point. The more I think about this the harder I laugh.

It looks brilliant in one colour, I hope BMW are taking notes.
