Announcement

Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    It looked like Wheels mag referred to the Up as a candidate for the WCOTY this year. I guess this means they are gearing up for an introduction fairly soon - probably the Sydney Motor Show I guess. I'm keen to know prices!

    Saw a fair few of them in Germany last year.....they'd make a great commuter.

          Wish I'd had a passenger last night I was next to a red SLS then a red M3 then a Grantourismo. All going as slow as me in peak hour traffic

          The sound of the SLS in the harbour tunnel was terrific. Driver was hanging back and gunning it deliberately.

              Driving into Campbelltown just now (near the VW dealership) I spotted an up! On the road!!

              Had to turn and look twice to be sure, but there is was.

              If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

                up! in Sydney on YouTube

                Both cars, 3 door move up! spec which is the middle of the range, both likely to be the entry version for Australia.

                  Interesting caption on the website "optional comfort style pack fitted" I wonder how many models we will get? One with an set of options?

                  60hp or 75hp engine?

                      Anyone wanting to check out an up! here in Perth:
                      I just went down to the city for lunch and they have a pop up shop where Borders was on Murray St Mall.
