VW oddities

Post by dsan »

Just like trying to explain the bermuda triangle, quantum physics and woman's intuition, the veedub carries some rather unusual approaches to life:

1: driving like crap all week until it cuts out. Stranded on side of road for 15 minutes until she starts again and then whilst being wellied down the M4, she judders four times and then runs like the sweetest machine ever designed by a man in a brown coat and facial hair.
