New Set of Wheels

Arledrian · 09-18-2004, 04:08 AM

My car's been dead for about four weeks now, and since I really need one to live my day to day life, I sold it as a parts car, added a wad of cash on top, and got myself a new ride. It's a 1995 Volkswagen Vento. What do you cats think?

Ah well.... as long as you don't have to walk...

Not as cool as my sadly long departed Corrado G60, but it looks nice enough. Just out of interest, what model is it? The rear spoiler hints at VR6

Sadly now, I've become utterly sensible and am currently driving a Fiat Punto turbodiesel.....

Johnny, so good to have you back, son.

Mouse, I wish it was a VR6, but it's just a slightly modded Jetta III GL (I guess Vento is the European name for it). It has the added spoiler, tinted windows, and mirrors with indicators in them. This week I'm buying plates, insurance, wax, and chrome hubcaps, but I'm not stopping there. I'm going to add all sorts of things, and eventually I hope to take it to shows. I loved your Corrado by the way, it's a shame it gave up on you.

I like the spoiler, for some strange reason it really suits the car.

Nice one Arledrian!

Just kidding dude, the car looks fine enough to me. You just need to get rid of that silly spoiler on the car's ass, it's like a sign that says "watch out, i'm dangerous". It doesn't belong on that type of vehicles. Just my opinion though.

Still a good car though Dave the Q.

And so's yours Arledrian
