Nazi wagon? I suppose that's what you'd call all VWs?

Even the Veyron? :|

well the Beetle was specially made at the request of Hitler. he wanted a cheap good car for the people, hence Volks (people) Wagen (car).

I'd prefer to have one of the originals if i had to have one, can't stand the new versions of them. looks like they're driving backwards.

my grandpa told me on weekend:

the africa corp had captured one of hiters adapted beetles (used in their army)
and the vehicle was brought back to england by REME and shown to the Roots group (car manufacturer back then) for analysis etc

they concluded it was utterly useless and impracticle to have a aircooled engine etc


lol look what happened!!!

no one ever heard of the Roots Group now, and look at VW............

Made by Hitler with plans stolen from others. No thanks, car might be decent but the entire history of it is horrible. And to think Hippies used this for a peace style representation.

I think you've morphed the Renault F1 R24 with the Nissan Skyline R34.

TVR Sagaris:

More pics here: [www.sleepy-fish.com]

I don't know why I like it. It isn't beatiful, and it'll probably fall in to pieces after few years of use, but I still love it and hope that I can one day afford to get one. I don't think it could be described as beatiful, as I said before, but still I think it looks great. It has some unique rudeness in it's looks, and thats why I like it.

so was your degree not beneficial to you getting the job at all?

was it just right place, right time and you got lucky? did you need to have any experience or could you go in a complete novice, and they'd train you up?

well i came from uni so had no real experience

you do get trained up to a certain extent.

maybe my degree helped - but im banking on using that as an internal vacancy job higher up one day
