I didn't know VW still made the Fox. My sister had a 1988. It was her first car. Nice little bugger it was.

Paul - I saw a commercial on TV last night showing the new Rabbit that is coming out. Maybe VW are going back to some of their old model names....

They are reintroducing the name Rabbit, but only in North America. So no more 'Golf'. Odd... when the Gold was first introduced in 1976 (??) it was called the Golf in every country in the world save the USA and Canada. Then they finally change the name in what, 1990ish? Now they go back.

I don't understand. Retro-marketing?
