mulkbear Posted April 16, 2006 Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 The dark purple/maroon special edition VW Beetle was a good looking cab IMO with the colour coded wheels and the plush leather coloured seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve2 Posted April 16, 2006 Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 not everyone wants to own a golf, so Sk gets a beetle and if he,s happy with it good luck to him. I do prefer the older models which have been restored nicely but Shao's cab is not a bad looker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRobin Posted April 16, 2006 Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] MrMe, you nearly always give an honest opinion and often strongly [/ QUOTE ] I do - but if you search TSN, amongst all those 18,000+ posts you'll not find a single one where I have made a negative comment as directly as some others do about another users car (except for the MGF Gallery incident when I'd only been a member for a few weeks and I never did find out who it's owner was). Why? Because if I don't like someone's car - what is the point in me saying when they've clearly just bought it and are happy with it? Just why? For my own personal satisfaction? The point being, I'll give an opinion, yes. However, if someone has purchased a car I don't see what the point is in saying "Urgh, horrid colour" or "Gay car" or "Mad to buy beige" or similar....they're nothing of value whatsoever. It's how the remarks are phrased above that makes the difference in how this thread reads IMO. Have a read again up to this point - and ask yourself "If I were SK, how would I feel about the way some of those comments were raised". [/ QUOTE ] ....Absolutely fair enough, MrMe. Btw, I'm not about to read 18,000 posts! . ....SK - I do hope you didn't find my honesty about the beige in any way insulting or similar. I just don't happen to like beige anything! Just my opinion which amounts to diddlysquat anyway in the grand scheme of things. Going to watch Sigourney Weaver and Jennifer Love Hewitt being sexy in a movie in a few minutes - Channel 4. Love Hewitt can wear beige on a date with me any time! - I would make an exception Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shao_khan Posted April 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 MrSmitten - oilburner is 1.9tdi - 100bhp (sure that can be overcome quite quickly). Pincher - Legroom is fine with both kiddies in forward facing seats, wasnt possible in early seat. Mrme - I agree with you - 2 ways to put things, even making negative sound ok, I dont mind though - I dint buy a beige beetle to attract the masses!!! Quattroboy - I have had 4 used cars now that have lost me nothing when I came to change them - all in the negotiation. Been a lovely day in the sun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee_ Posted April 16, 2006 Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 Not a bad colour at all, a car like that can get away with it. There are two beetles in the street behind me, A white one with herbie stripes and numbers and a red cabrio with ladybird spots. Looks like something out of a story book when you come up the road.

Oli Posted April 16, 2006 Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 [ QUOTE ] Oli - Why would anyone have a Silver or Black car and bend into a sea of drab when they could have a cool colour like beige? As for opinions - I dont mind people being honest, just rude I find uncecessary [/ QUOTE ] Good Im glad you understand the personal opinions bit, Ive said I dont like beige as a car colour, that is my opinion. You want something different, not silver or black, and something about bending!!!! That is your opinion. If would all thought the same this place would be boring. But more people should voice their own opinions about the subject in hand and not about other opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milo Posted April 21, 2006 Report Share Posted April 21, 2006 Believe or not I saw 2 of these today, same car and colour, in Low Fell today within 10 minutes of each other (one 54 and one 53 plate). One with the roof down and one with it up - both looked very nice although one seemed to have a yellow looking leather in it although I didn't get much of a chance to look.

Booster Posted April 21, 2006 Report Share Posted April 21, 2006 I saw one with a biege roof and it looked very nice. The wheels were VW but not ones I had seen before. Set it off perfectly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
