No point in performance mods for old cars

Disappointing to see "that" attitude still alive and well on here.

 

we should get those lot out again. good fun to compare different cars.

 

We'll have to get Andy to round up the bandits.

I wonder how that guys 16vt rocco is coming along

 

i wanna see that "200 pony" fester have its trousers taken down again haha

 

Maybe he's having 'structural stability' problems this time.

 

"that" attitude.... that you refer to nordoff- care to alloborate a little?
mayb its jus me being slow today.

 

the st owner did know as its a friend and he kept up with him

but his driver is stupidly stripped of everything that has no real function for driving

 

Possibly referring to the original poster? I don't think it is alive and well (the thread has been resurrected but the original post was back in 2004) and most owners of older VWs are happy enough with tasteful mods. Engine/performance mods can be kept under the bonnet and don't take away the original car's looks, so can be very subtle indeed. That there are still a significant amount of unmodified older VWs, is probably a reflection that they were pretty good to start with anyway.
