My wife had to take my decidedly plain GTI out yesterday (so her car wouldn’t get hailed on) When she got back home she told me the following:
Wife: omg it started to rain and the widows were fogging up!
Me: yeah you have to turn the little knob on the right to defog the windows.
Wife: and then I had to manually turn the headlights on.
Me: yeah you have to manually turn the knob on the left to turn the lights on.
Wife: and once the lights were in there’s no little indicator on the dash to confirm they’re on
Me: Once the lights are on, the entire dashboard lights up.
Wife: and then I had to put the wipers on.
Me: yeah...those too. You have to MANUALLY turn them on.
Wife: and then whenever I came to a stop I kept forgetting that I had to push the clutch in, and it almost stalled like every time.
Me: ....THAT’S IT woman- you’re never driving my car again!
Love her to death though, and at least ‘used to’ be able to drive stick!
