Great, thanks .. Yeah, i did know about the newsgroup, i jus' don't read
usenet stuff too much anymore, 'cause i got soooo sick of porn (kiddie or
other) spammers and spam machines, and all kinds of crap being posted in
completely unrelated groups (and that was over 3 years ago, i can imagine
how bad it is now!).  I hope you guys don't mind if i talk about the GTi
for a little while until i find another 'rocco that isn't such a lemmon? ;)

AFAIK, you guys provide the best info on ALL vw's that i can think of
(besides Bentley ;).  And the best thing about the list, if i ask a
question, it's usually answered by the end of the day.
