WOW.... what a list. You take the prize for sure. I thought I was the only oldy around. The Audi is only one of three German cars you have owned. Curious, out of all the them which one would you still own if you could?

 

1977 VW Type II (Bus)
1984 VW Rabbit
1981 Buick Regal
1987 Toyota Camry
1995 Ford Probe GT
1997 Audi A4 1.8T
2001 Audi A6 2.7T
2007 Volvo XC70
2010 Grand Caravan

 

Yeah, this does show my age (I love reading the term in this forum, "drive like an old man"), I often cruise at 105 and other times 125.

The 2005 Passat TDI wagon was a great car, except for the electrical problems. It was a pleasure to drive, sporty suspension etc. If the dealer (Barrie) had been better to deal with, we would have kept it after our lease. In hind site we should have, it was kept as new and my wife misses it.

The 2008 TT is my favourite car of any, it is by far the most fun to drive, it gets really great mileage. Other than the FWD, and the brute power of the V8 Porsche, it compares in driving pleasure. The interior of the TT is superior too. My only caution is the talk about repairs, I am using about .5 litre oil in 1500k which concerns me.

Thank you for asking,
