beautiful car beautiful pics loving it but did the loop cope ok with space for everything or was it a case of strip evrything out and squish it all in??

Flatten back seats 2 min

Spread waterproof picnic rug (soft side down)

Load camping gear and personal bags

Cover with picnic rug (matching interior!)

Close car up.

Car packed and ready to go in 15mins. Practice makes perfect, well nearly!

Getting a roof box soon, so we'll have a bit more room in the rear next time.

It would be easier if TSO didn't insist on taking a wardrobe for Paris when we're going camping, but Hey Ho! That's life...

A few pic's from my recent trip to Beadnell Bay, Northumberland. No road trips, so the pics are all in the campsite.

My Gti and my little tent...

Well I haven't updated this thread for a while, so just to keep it alive...

Thursday evening, TSO was working late. I had the GTi at work as the Arosa was p*ss wet through (see elsewhere for RANT thread!).

One of my guys asked for a lift into town: I agreed. It was such a beautiful evening I decided to take the long way home from town. About 70 miles instead of erm... 2. :)

Here are a few pics from my little camera which I found floating around under the drivers seat. The car is now on 195/45/15 all around. Dunlop SP2040 front and Michelin Pilots rear.

Photo's were all taken on the A822. Fantastic road.

Pity the low evening sun was in my eyes for 40% of it...

Right, quick update on the GTi.

Cleaned for ScottishVAG meet at the Falkirk wheel, so I decided to put the roof bars on and take some photo's.

Ended up in the work car park as it was nice and quiet on a Saturday afternoon and not far from home.

And then the weather changed...

Hahahaha!

It was late on in the afternoon and the S3 decided on a high ISO. I think some of the pic's are a bit grainy, but they don't show too badly unless you look at the full res. versions.

Enjoy!

Next photo shoot: clean the Arosa, put on 'her' roof bars and get both cars together!
