Ha no she hasn't found out yet lol.....

But she has got a new idea in her head which will take a large part of my monthly budget :mad:

Little does she know the Scirocco will absorb a chunk (when it arrives) :yummy:

So, i'm in trouble later!

Still, at the end of the day, im still having the car regardless! :clap:

Wait until it arrives the wife will soon realise how much your pulling power has increased. She will be all over you to make sure you dont run away with a new model. :)

Now you guys need to be brave and order the car, who has to earn the money to pay for it?
I took my other half to the VW agent to see the Scirocco and asked what she thought of it, being a woman with no taste or concept of what a good car looks like said that that she thought it was crap. I then turned to the dealer and said that’s fine by me she does not like it I will have one in black please.
She drives a red Honda Civic 1.8 (I think it does not look bad but does not have the stile elegance and sporty looks of a Scirocco).
Show your women what your made of she can only throw you out.

She could stay and moan about it constantly for the next few months, and throw things about... and generally make life miserable enough for you to wish you'd never bought it... :shrug:
