Not sure if it was Rock or Pewter grey, great colour either way.

Forgot about these two when I was in berlin, both right near our apartment (one right outside, the other up the road near the shop). Didn't see any others the whole time we were there!

I found a nice parking spot at the airport last week. I am in the middle. It's like a family photo!

An appallingly driven red mk3 DIESEL - at the Sudbury/M3 roundabout on Friday morning. Must have been late for an all important power-point presentation of some sort. Cockeral.

A black-ish mk3 DIESEL on the A3 approaching Hindhead on Saturday . Distant occupants.........

A Mars Red Mk2 GT on P slots near Waterlooville on Saturday lunchtime - think I've seen it at No Rice a couple of years back.

Vw graveyard in Tallybont on Usk

Post by Darlowolf »

Missed the meet due to family holiday already booked in Welsh Wales. On a Brecon canal walk at Tallybont just out of Brecon I came across a VW graveyard. Two Mk 1 GTi Golfs, a Mk 1 Scirocco GLS, two Mk 2's and assorted others inc. 205's and a Porsche. See attached pics.There were definitely spares to be had- no-one about to ask. Can't understand why they've all been left rot or why the local council hasn't told him to shift the thirteen cars alongside the Brecon canal. Anyone know who this guy is?

I'll find out. My mate's from Brecon and we're going there for their wedding in 3 weeks.
