No power steering and a 1950's engine) 2000 Defender 90 Td5 hardtop 2004 VW Golf 2.0tdi (still got) 2005 Defender 110 Td5 CSW (still got) Mountain bikes on the other hand, now I could fill several pages... |

twopoint6 - we have nearly matching current garages! You obviously have good taste. I've a 2006 Golf GT Tdi and a 2005 Td5 90 CSW. I can't really take part in this thread as I have only owned 3 cars. Too much of a youngster. 2005 Td5 | 90 Station Wagon | Tonga Green |
