  • Yet another newb in Perth!

    Hello, my name's Tristan

    I'm mad keen on fuel efficiency and comfort and ergonomics.

    We wanted to get a Polo TDi in early 2007, but due to the 5 month wait required we had to choose another small car pronto (the old car was dieing). Got a Honda Jazz VTi and have been impressed with it, I regularly return 5L/100km and the magic seats are... magic

    But soon it's time to get something a little larger, a little classier, a little safer, a little quieter. So now my wife and I have time to get the car we want and have a bit more cash these days too. So we're looking at a Golf VI TDi DSG, hopefully they bring out the Bluemotion as I really am not bothered with 0-100 speed and all that 'crotch-stuff'.

    One concern though, is if I can fit my bike in the back with the seats folded down? Do they fold flat?

    Thanks for the forum and I can't wait for the Golf VI to be released here and all the details to be revealed.

    Welcome to the forum,

    I have a polo and I can fit a track bike in the back with easy, only gotta fold down one side, so I imagine the golf would fit it.

    I just returned from my polo 3.75L/100kms

        welcome aboard Coaster/Tristan.

        Unfortunately consumption has never been one of my focal points. My S3 does an ok average of around 10L/100kms, whereas my GT-P averages around 19L/100kms

          Welcome Tristan.

          With the recent drop in fuel costs.....economy in the R32 is not a word discussed by my wife or I of late.

            Hi Tristan, welcome to the forum! Enjoy your stay
            Hope you're a patient man & can wait until the Mark VI arrives otherwise you'll have to buy a V in the mean time hehe!
