Cool ride, I don't think we have these in the UK - probably because we don't really have the weather :( Is that hood manual or automatic out of interest?
Thank you :-) It's a 2000 Cabrio GL...basically a convertable version of the Golf. I dunno if you guys would have them or not, but I'd be suprised if you didn't.
Texas is great in the winter. I've spent the day in a tank top with the windows in the apartment wide open, enjoying the sun. It's actually summertime that I stop driving around with the top down, just because to put the top down in the summer feels like riding around in a hair dryer.
It's a manual. It has a couple of handles that you lack down and hoist the top back. It's a little tricky for one girl to do, annoyingly, but I figure it's one less part of the car to break. Manual transmision as well.

ok ok - don't rub it in :) It's about -5 outside and despite the (useless) heating being on I'm freezing my nuts off and can't seem to get to sleep; we seriously need to move somewhere warmer!

Hehe.. you're probably better at it then I would be :)
Oooh brr! -5 is quite cold, and you're right, after a point, the heating sometimes doesn't seem to do the job. Dylan and I are trying to figure out where we want to move after we're done with Texas, and we discussed going to Madison, WI, but I just don't think I could deal with any place that cold, especially after growing up in Texas.
Hehe.. you're probably better at it then I would be :)
Perhaps. The key is find buddies to ride around with and enlist their help when it comes time to put the top back up. :-P
