My 1999 silver TDI
Hi!
I have owned my silver TDI just couple of months now. Itīs all original. My NB is fun to drive and I like it a lot! It has no name (yet)... Here are some pics... Last edited by Kuplamies; 06-21-2010 at 07:34 PM..

Thanks BigSexyTDI! Yes, it is a old ski jump tower. It has been out of use for many years now. Would You believe, that one motorcyclist have jumped there with his enduro motorbike! I don´t remember, how long he jumped, but it must have been at least 20-30 meters... About ten years ago, I climbed to the top of that tower. It was a frightening experience! As You can see (pic 3) the tower is much more higher than the trees around it. I wouldn´t dare to jump there with skis  Yeah, I like my TDI; it´s my first diesel engined car. I like its low fuel consumption. We have such an expensive fuel here in Finland, so it´s nice if it is not necessary to fill the tank all the time. Last edited by Kuplamies; 10-16-2008 at 07:20 AM..

Is that an M Farmall on your shirt? Are you into antique tractors too?

Yes, I think it is M Farmall. I suppose that You like old tractors like me too... I don´t own any, but I´m interested in all kinds of old machinery I was grown up in the countryside.My favourite tractormodel is Porsche Diesel. Are You familiar with Porsche tractors?

I like the colours of autumn. Also it is nice when the hotness of summer is replaced by cool autumn breezes Yes, I like especially the Icelandic breed. Horses are quite small, but although very strong. The most loveable affection is their character. They act nice almost all the time; they are very calm and brave. I just love them! My best holiday was last year, when I was in Iceland. I was then participated in at the six days hiking trip with 60 horses herd! We accomplished then appr. 160 kilometers trip around the mountains and lava-beaches My old bug is manufactured 4.11. 1969 but it is a 1970 model. The colourtone is original "diamond blue", but I have repainted it couple of years ago myself. I have driven with it appr. 100000 kilometers (it has 250000 kms altogether in odometer). I think I would never sell it  I also like the New Bug very much. So I am planning to keep it a long time Last edited by Kuplamies; 10-18-2008 at 11:06 AM..

Huh, that's some interesting upholstery with the numbers and all. Was that a special edition or something?

I suppose that my car is a normal edition, because I have seen many other NBīs which has got the similar upholstery as my car. I also have seen gray upholstery, with the same design as mine. I have to admit, that I donīt know exactly, what my carīs trim level is  It has got heated seats, heated mirrors and I think that the windshield washers are also heated. It has got AC. In Finland I have never heard GL, GLS etc. levels
