the welcome bit.......
just want to check one point…….. it says the club aims at the "slightly more mature owner" i hope that means in years and not mentally.

Oddly enough, I remember buying the first edition of Max Power back in about 1991. It was quite a respectable mag back then with only 'cars' in it, as apposed to the attributes now favoured…
Cheers,
Drew.
Attributes hey thats where I've been going wrong!
I used to own a mk1 - well I've had 2 actually - YDU 720X & SMU 420Y. Currently I drive an 98 Scotia White Mitsubishi Evolution V RS…. fancy getting another mk1 someday

Your right it is. I had this Micra (bubble shape) come up behind me a couple days back sounding like it had a V8 engine under the bonnet wanting to race me. I just moved over and let him go.Why botheri just thought it was a boy racer mag, btw where can i get some wide wheels. noisy exhaust, thumping stereo and go faster stripes

A bit childish I know, but quite amusing to see the look on their faces. Unless you accidently come across a Vauxhall Nova with a 2.0 16v transplant, as I did last weekend ops:
Chap was actually quite complimentary about the Golf though!

Is it just me though or is Performance VW edging towards the Max Power side of things… (Dark side!!)
No - its just you, you are edging towards the dark site, pretty soon you will be known as Dart Phil.
Seriously though, the mags I now read are Retro Cars which is excellent and Practical Classics which is pretty good. They have useful articles in them such as how to balance twin carbs or port and polish our own cylinder head - far better than "bolt on a K&N filter and Peco back box and you will double your power"

Was it white with a big Mesh grill and huge "NISMO" sticker accross the windscreen???
That is what I saw the other week - It too sounded like it had a turbo'd V8 or something shoe-horned into it… :roll:
