    This was Friday night, exactly 1 hour after I picked her up.
    Not the best way to start off the relationship but I got a flat on the way home and pretty much laughed the whole way to the shop!! lol

    Woke up bright and early to get her in the shop and replace those tires. [​IMG]

    And today she got a nice bath inside and out. She can use a good wax but man, she cleans up well [emoji108][​IMG]

    Welcome to M/A!
    I was actually looking for a VW Turbo S Beetle when I found Astro. It was love at first sight and I was sold with the test drive!

    I still have my 2001 cabrio but I had a mk2, several mk3 jettas and after 10 years, I decided that the direction that the VW community was heading in, it just wants for me. I guess I'm just a little too conservative for their taste lol

    Welcome to the addiction. Made the same transition myself. After many years of driving VW's, I made the switch. Was actually looking for another VW when I found my Coop, but after viewing many cars I found that I saw VW's as boring, cookie-cutter vehicles. Not so with the MINI. After test driving the soon to be mine Justa, my wife looked at me and said "you're drooling". :drool
