there's no better review than a personal experience!

y'know... in many respects i agree with that. There are only so many facts that can be put in a review of anything. ultimately it is down to an opinion.

I'm classing this as nothing more than a windup from now on, which is exactly what it appears to be. Personal experience is exactly that and nothing more. One never makes a sweeping statement when working from experience of a single instance. Pure and simple.

Matt, stop being a girl!

there is a good thresd on delivery women though!

the motor factor round my way only has female drivers. never really thought about it before!

D'oh!

Easy one that.... if a big bloke turns up every day to deliver your parts the mechanics think nothing off it... if a young lady turns up then even if they are more expensive they will use them because men like puddles are shallow



with of course, the exception of the puddle that was the star of 'that' vicar of dibley episode.

Funnily enough, had someone doing the exact same thing to me just yesterday/today.

Ah, that thread...

so, if i'm correct, when you test drove your surf, you found it to be perfectly in order and bought it.

but if you drove it and it overheated, the seat was uncomfortable, the roof was too low, etc. then would you not think that surfs were lemons?

[Pops Mk3]

Exactly

It's a bit like me saying all Bentlys are shit because a mate of mine had one that broke down, then fell off the transporter that was taking it to be repaired and lastly caught fire in the garage. (True statement by the way!)

plus, the Bentley dealer near me is full of pompous ####s!

Wierd rule that, we can say shit but not ar5e...

Oh hell no. It was ####ing oil out like a sieve, bl00dy well hated the seating setup and thought the power steering was way too girly. But, what has that to do with liking something?

used to frequent a forum which changed the words.
some woman talking about her cat, had the meaning completely changed when it changed "pussy" to "lady parts"!!

Have you carried out any mods to the seating set up then mate?

(im being serious in this post btw! )

You can say arse by itself. It's just when you add anything to the end.

Nope. Took me nigh on two years, but I finally got used to it.

Ain't tried that. We'll soon find out. Arsenal.


Edit: Obviously the profanity filter has flaws then. It let that profanity be.

I actually bought my Surf on a whim at an auction. Loved the thing from minute one!

[MattF]

Matt, stop being a girl!

Why is it that whenever I try to be diplomatic or, dare I say it, nice, I get accused of being a jess/wuss/girl? Honestly, you lot just love the drama.

[MattF]

Same here. Walked around the corner, saw the bull bars and that was it.
