....Except that the term 'variant' can also mean 'abnormal' or even 'subnormal'!! :evilgrin:

But I only meant it in a nice way.

I can't find the stats at the moment but it has been shown on numerous occasions that when a new female joins a forum dominated by males, her posts attract a zillion times more attention than when a bloke becomes a new member! - Surprise, surprise!

^^^^

So far, we have 2 girlies, 1 gay, and countless hairy blokes! But we are all very friendly and one big happy family!

:grouphug: :drinking:

[We've got lots and lots of girlies in the VAG Babes area but I've just learnt that they aren't real! :sad:]

not sure really, had 2 mk5 gti's which I modded so have learnt a bit which is nice to pass on, still love the mk5 gti and like to think I've made a few friends a long the way :happy2:

also not lost hope that there will be another gti in the family at some point :smiley:
