Mike showed me pics. You have silver ones, yeah? I like my silver ones. Look good on the car. I just don't want to destroy my centre caps, but can't find a tool for them anywhere, what with them being discontinued.

I have 2 sets, silver and black.

I also have issues finding tool for the centre caps.

So my dad, (think 70 year old)

has decided to trade in his hilux.

he has had a variaty of Lux's for past 31 years

his thoughts on a new cheap run around to get him to golf..

a bloody Maloo

how do I politely explain he will look like a tosser in it!

shit I'm too old to drive one let alone him.

speaking to a friend who works at a volkswagon dealership... apparently customer came in for routine service on new gen Golf. "do you know why my golf keeps going through so much oil?" friend spoke to some people and found out the new golfs are designed to use up oil. around 2L per 5,000-10,000kms or something

:wacko:

not sure if trying to keep regular servicing or trying to meet emissions standards/efficiency.

and heard about audi servicing too... blimey. Audi 15,000kms service: $1200. Q7 brake pad replacement: just under $1000 a corner because need to replace rotors as well.

A maloo is only driven by 18/19yo tradies who are trying to use it to chase minge.

Tell him to buy a golf to get to golf.

so they have a tiguan for mum to drive.

in first 12 months spent 33 weeks in the shop.

they replaced gear box twice, seals in something else, to find it was the rear main seal in motor.

note it was not a VW owned center but a re seller, and if you know where I grew up you will have an idea on where the dealer is...

scary thing is he drives soooo slow, as checking out what other farmers are up to, so when he hits the 8-km zone at the edge of town he has to speed up!

thats because Euro cars are usually owned by people that think spending money on cars for no real reason is cool...They like to brag to their friends about how much they spend...As if spending pointless cash is a sign of prosperity...

but hey, whatever helps the economy churn over...

Let him have his fun and sell it to me for cheap when he's done with it.
