Golf BlueMotion and BlueMotion Package

[MkVIGTI]

The GTD does seem to fit your bill nicely. But I thought the drive away sale doesn't apply to the GTD?

I bought it, Candy White, 28.5k drive away with rear parking sensor and floor mat. Might not be a very good deal but they don't have the black one left. Going to tint the car with Tint a car using Octane. Should I buy a Garmin GPS for it as well or just use my phone? Any good dash mount for Galaxy S?

[mrt]

For that price I take it it's not GTD Where you end up getting it from?

I'm pretty impressed with the fuel consumption of the bluemotion - using less than 1/3 of the fuel of my 4WD around town, and am not taking it that easy.

I wonder if anyone's bought a glacier blue version yet.

[borepig]

It's a bluemotion. They dont discount GTD too much. I got it from Five docks, but Parramatta has a better price. i dont like Glacier blue.

Clicon... Mobile Phone & GPS Car Holders

Nice, they look really customisable.. Anyone tried it? Seems a bit expensive though.

The Car has a production date of Jun 2011 and Comp date of 09/11, is it normal? Sorry, my first new car...

[MkVIGTI]

Looks normal, takes a few months for the car to ship to Oz.

I have one in my Polo... It's excellent and there is no drilling. Look for it on eBay or an overseas site

I ended up buying pleomax mount 20 bucks. Made in Korean... I will report back how good or bad it is

Golf Bluemotion Owners

Any other BluMo owners out there?

What are your thoughts on your car?

Are you getting the advertised fuel economy?

Mine - I am getting approx 4.5l/100km driving locally (around town). Haven't done any long trips yet.

[Jamar]

My wife drives one. The car has been good so far. She only does short trips generally, 1 - 2km type trips (shops, schools, etc.) so the fuel economy is nothing like yours... Around 6L/100km

I am waiting for delivery of a new Golf Bluemotion and expect to rack up some high kilometers very quickly. I live on the Central coast and drive to Sydney and Newcastle about 4 times per week. I currently use an 02 WRX which has been returning 11L/100 and this is no easy task as you have to drive it like it has a radiator leak. So I will be expecting to break new records with the Golf. Stay tuned. Brett

Will be interested to know how you go with the fuel economy on the freeway.
I to travel CC to SYD weekly and easily average low 4's @110 in my Jetta TDI DSG
Slow the thing down to 80 and it will do 3.7-3.8 with aircon off

[Blustone]

I expect to set new records so I will be keen to boast my runs on here
