what have you done to your car today ?

Feel pretty guilty seeing everyone's well-kept cars, when mine is scuffed and cracked on both bumpers, dodgy paint job on the front bumper by me, different coloured panels, saggy door cards and clogged intake manifold that I still haven't cleaned. Kind of feel it deserves better really.

If you want to make yourself feel better have a read of the MK4 Forum and see all those shiny new motors with nothing but problems and some not even covered by new or used car warranty.

Yours is still running

Every time I get itchy feet about changing my daily motor, that’s what I do.
Just read a few pages of problems with new cars, not just on here on a couple of other forums too then think why would I do that.
It’s great motivation to keep my old ones.

That is pretty much it! We can be proud of owning a 25 years running car! Mk1's aren't bullet proof but are close. Almost everyone has had car problems. And then there is Mk1 problems. But there's usually a lot of help around here, and with some luck, we can usually fix much of the problems. Of course, the price you pay for 25 years of maintenance can sometimes almost lead to divorce from your car and your spouse. But it's a pleasure to drive, and whether it's spotless or has a flawed paint job, it always puts a smile on our faces.
