RE: speaking of new VW's
I have to agree with you on the reasons why they won't
resurrect it. Yet, there is still a possibility we
can get them to produce a small amount of limited
edition models. Maybe they could slightly modify the
old MK2 model, making it sleaker. The could rework
all the engine, and the interior.
I don't know...remake an old classic?...well thats
just my imagination getting the best of me....
