Hi + Peace + Prosperity

My name is Mark
I am a SE Melbournian, Bayside, who is probably 50 % QLDer and 50 % Victorian.

I currently drive a Golf V comfortline ( purchased new from Barloworld Mentone ) with a few extras, which include leather, GPS , sunroof,17 inch Jetta wheels ( the same as the TSI ) however I chose them before B4 Volkswagen did for the Golf
Barloworld Mentone was a good place , The head mechanic Jason West was always a pleasure to talk VW with.


I have decided that after 4 years of Golf V goodness ( I couldnt wait for the GTI at the time,10 months waiting list in 2005 ) It may be time to part with mountain goat and go the full monty , given I compromised all those years ago.

I have ordered a white Passat Station Wagon form Barloworld Moorabbin.
I decided to change colours from a silver car to white for the R36.

After ordering about early september I should have it in a couple of weeks .
It has a VIN # showing its the MY10 designation which is a magic A instead of the 9.

I have the satnav , electric tailgate , sunroof ( white mandatory ) as options and will await delivery to confirm the rest ( Paint, Fabric protection,tinted windows etc ). I have to eyeball the baby to finetune without errors.

I must admit to discovering this forum after ordering,however I am so damn excited at finally getting a decent rig. I have had a considerable amount of time to reflect on the purchase and apart from colour, have made the right decision, this is the best car for the price on the market, fully loaded.

I have enjoyed the forum watching as a camper for the last month.
Hi + Peace + Prosperity to you all.This also is not possible without a VW

Cheers

First post

Hi Volks folks, first time poster, although I've had my Golf since new and almost up to 130,000km now, this forum looks like a friendly place. In fact it's the first forum I've ever joined, Yay VW!

Just in the process of purchasing my first Multivan, quite excited about that and probably will have a few questions once I get it home and into my garage (hoping the roof rack won't foul the door)

Main reason for loving the Multivan; got invited along on a few 800km trips through Germany in a fully crewed Multivan T4, with a designated driver happily sitting on 180kph all day while those of us in the cheap seats drank beer and made merry, poor driver!

I also once owned a 1986 Passat 1.8 hatchback in UK

Good to be here

May I Introduce Myself?

G'day,

Frankenstrat = Frank & Stratocaster. It rolls off the tongue better than Frankenjazzbass

My late father had two Golfs in his time, a green MkII and a white MkIV. He really looked after those two cars, they were his pride and joy. Sadly, he became unable to drive following some medical problems and it broke his heart when he had to part with his Golf.

There's a distinct possibility that I'll be continuing the Wolfsburg association soon. I have the opportunity of getting a Golf as my next company vehicle so I've been doing my research, most of it courtesy of this fine web site. I've tentatively requested a 118TSi, but I could be persuaded to go for a 103TDi I'll need to start a thread either in the MkVI Forum or the Diesel Forum, I'm not sure which would be more appropriate.

My wife and I went to the VW dealer "just over the Causeway in Victoria Park" to have a look at what they had. We deliberately chose a time in the afternoon when they would be closed, I didn't wantto be pounced upon by an over-zealous salesman. We were both mightily impressed with the MkVI, it's a stunning looking car. I haven't driven one yet, but I know when I get behind the wheel it's going to be superb.

But which to get? Petrol or diesel? Decicions, decisions.

In case you didn't know, I'm in WA.
