    QLD Yep another new guy..!

    Hi All,

    Bout time I got around to posting instead of lurking...
    My VW experience is limited to getting lifts to school in my grandads beetle in the early 80's, and in 2006 I bought a new VW Jetta TDi Manual...

    I have got to say it has been the most reliable, fuel economical vehicle I have ever owned, and aside from topping up the oil in the first 3-6mths, It has been a dream to own and has kept my Mrs very pleased on the distance and time between trips to the servo... As a salary sacrifice prospect it is excellent, the only dillemma is the funds set aside for fuel never seem to get spent.... (tough life I have).
    We average about 25000km a year and with the size of the boot, going on a driving holiday and packing for 4 is not a problem.

    It is certainly not going to be the last VW I ever own, the only question now is how long to keep it, and do I trade up to a Passat or go Jetta again!!! (Would love a V10 Touareg but the funds wont stretch that far!!).

    Cheers,

    Johnsy

      Ooops.. my bad, typical noob mistake!

      Blue Graphite Metallic.
      No Options just window tinting... = poverty pack!
      (but it came with so many standard features like climate control, cruise, rain sensing wipers etc just didnt see the point!!!)

      And I did consider leather but with 2 kids under 2 at the time didnt want to freak out every time I cleaned the seats!!.

      PS Pics will follow sometime in the near future...........

        Haha I don't think there's a poverty pack on the Jettas... Oh wait - it's called the Golf

        But you're right, with so many standard features, it makes you wonder if it really needs anything..

        Have fun

          Hey mate welcome to VWWC, hopefully your time here is good. Mum and dad would love a new TDI VW, jetta or golf, I'll have to try and convince them.
