Why do you drive mk1s?
Posted: Sun Aug 12, 2007 11:29 am
I see awfully a lot of mk1s on this forum (most from UK, I suppose) and I can't stop being amazed with it...
OK, in Germany and other countries, mostly they are restaurated and used for show....or for berg cup
But here, I see many of you buying this car for everyday use....some buying it as its first car.......I don't understand that because mentality in my country is that it is ridiciolous to drive such an old car (without abs, airbags, AC, etc.). Just to be clear, I'm not one of those, I always say that CARS stopped producing in early 90s. On the other side, mk1s/audi50s are very rare in Croatia and NEVER in good condition.
So, explain please
