Re: VW-term Thesaurus
Ita an Australian term use for a "bakkie". Chris is right "UTE" = Utility. The Chev Lumina comes to mind. Here it is a bakkie and in OZ its a Ute.

Re: VW-term Thesaurus
a POS is bluntly a real doos of a person, or more affectionetly a good place to park your "Docca" on a cold night, heck even on a warm night. It is the reproductive organ of the female species.
It is also an accroynm for Piece Of Shyte... Which I think is the same as the 1st description...

E.g. the spares you buy from VW, made by VW.
Incidentally I have found out what the 4 circles are in the Audi badge, it's the zero's you put after the reasonable price to get the OEM price...
What is the definition of NOS (New Old Stock)?
