Who would have guessed your first was a beatle!
Yeah we never forget our first loves, hackles, breakdowns, sketchy driving experiences, but everyone starts somewhere. Awesome idea!
Amazing story telling, love reading yours, one of the best and im honored I found you out here :)
Lucky my first has been also a VW, didn't have a box motor, but was a diesel, one of cheapest running ones and lasted me 135k kilometers without any major repairs, all regular maintenence I mostly did myself, as well as poor rust repairs, and good memories, with roadtrips for ever!
This happened after 1week of ownership, friends with enduros and getting stuck in a bit of mud, one of the reasons I now have a 4motion. :)
I've been stuck in mud with my 4x4's many times...Not a car...Never thankfully. Lol.
That's a cool photo and I wonder if there's a funny story attached to it? I remember getting so bogged once I had to call a mate for help. He turned up. Got bogged. It wasn't a good afternoon. Cold, pouring with rain and mud. So much mud. Everywhere. Lol.
Hahaa!
There are many, all turned out lucky and reliable. Yeah nature has it's tricks, everything happens for a reason.
I stay away from mud as I do want to use it for many many years to come. I do have a fair amount of fun in the snow though! :)
I've not driven in much snow, only very light snowfall. I think it would be fun. I'd like to do some ice driving too, like rally driving, with the spiked tyres and all.
One day my friend. :)
So your saying, you drove in desert as well ?
I've driven in the desert yes. Hot and dry.
Drop it like it's HOT!
