Re: [T3] VWs all over the place

You're telling me!  They're ubiquitous!  If you don't keep your eyes open
for one, it'll run you over.

There are several generations of gols.  This would be gol as in goal as in
futebol as in soccer; go figure--it's Brazil.  I haven't seen the aircooled
variety, but I'll keep my ears out.  Wouldn't surprise me, though.  The next
generation back looks just like my dad's diesel Dasher.  He loved that car,
but it just got too cranky for NW Indiana winters.  A lot like a Fox I guess
too.  The latest ones are your generic water-pumper four-bangers of a
styling I haven't seen anywhere else.  Nice cars though.

The roads here are built for the VW with the curves designed for slower
vehicles & the attention to smoothness has taken much into consideration the
forgiving suspension of the Type 1s & 2s.  But with faster & more powerful
cars now, I can't tell you how many Type1s I leave in my dust in a day.  A
lot of them are the 1300 variety though.
