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,

      The new Biscay Blue, well new for Australian Tigs anyway. Not the bright Catalina Blue, that was discontinued after they finished building the MY09s.
      I think its the same that you could get on Touaregs, its darker, found this pic of a Touareg in Biscay Blue

          That is one very nice car. Don't forget to take a camera with you to take pictures right in the showroom.

              Mmmm photos please!!!!
              I think the biscay blue is the same blue as the R series in other VW models...

              I think it will look GREAT! I didn't like the Catalina Blue either!
              Can't wait to see your photos - and hear of your "WOW I love this" initial experiences like so many of us have had!

                  Here it is

                  The blue looks gorgeous, love it love it love it. I'm a terrible photographer so that is the only pic a managed to get in the dealer that hasn't got glare and crappy colour quality. Haven't taken other photo's yet, and will have to clean it before I do, the kids have walked 3 kilos of mud into it already. Aaargh blood pressure!

                  Haven't had a chance to drive it much yet, d'oh, but have noticed a few things that I didn't on the test drive!

                  Like the MFD tells me when to change up a gear - i.e. tootling along at 60kph I should be in 5th, or at 70 I should be in 6th. The controls are numerous and will take me a while to get used to I think I got the manual out last night. Dealer went through alot during delivery but I was lalalala excited and didn't take it all in

                  And I did get the Golf dash panel, all in white, but doesn't look as crappy as in those MY2010 pics from Poland or wherever. Isn't as snazzy as the red/blue though. Pretty sure I'll cope though

                    Your link makes reference to your PC desktop, I dont think we can access the photo.

                          Sorry, bit snappy of me.

                          I looked in the FAQ about how to attach a file to a post, says there should be a Manage Attachments bizzo beneath this text box, and there isn't. Don't know how else to do it, bit frustrated.

                          Anyway, looks gorgeous

                              No worries

                              That is VERY nice!!!!

                              I really like my Black Tig, though my first chocie colour at the time of buying was Mountain Grey. I'm glad I got the black now as I think it looks classy, but if I were to do it again I reckon this blue is the colour I'd choose. Very ncie indeed.

                              Have fun discovering your new toy. It's been over 6000km's of ownership for me so far and I am still yet to find anything about it that I don't like (that I wasn't aware of at the time of buying). In fact, quite the opposite. I am more impressed now, and happier with the vehicle overall than when I originally got it. I hope you feel the same with yours.
