VIC My first car, and first post.

[mbd]

Hi,

This is my first post to my first car-related forum. I've been reading a lot of the threads here in the past few weeks, so thought I ought to register.

I live in Melbourne, and only got my license a couple of weeks ago, well past the age I should have (let's say at least double the legal minimum driving age).

My first car is a 2011 VW Golf TDI which I collected from the dealer last week. It's very nice, though admittedly I don't have a great deal of experience by which to compare.

Here's a picture. I greyed out the plates because it seems that's what people do, though I'm unsure why.





Anyway, thanks for having me, I'm glad to be here!

welcome!
Congrats on the new car and license.
Is it brand new? Nice car to have as a first car either way!
Black euros aswell??

Mbd,
Plates blacked out serve 2 purposes - obviously one being privacy and secondly not good to advertise your mods,tinkering, etc publicly with plates showing, so as to avoid any unwanted attention from insurance company / dealer or others, with the potential to affect warranty / insurance
Just my thoughts

Thanks! It's brand new, definitely one of the perks in waiting till your much older before you get a license, I suppose . And yes, black euros as well - I was hoping they'd look good on it, and (imho) they do!

Makes it harder for fellow vww`s to wave to and recognize you though.
