SE-QLD/N-NSW Tiguan Drive -- March 2011

[maca]

This'll be the most well-parked cruise ever (provided we all have PA)

[T&M]

Also means we should be getting some cooler weather = performance boost

Oh YES!!! performance.... there's just going to be heaps of KW exploding from the Mrs' TDI ...!! hahahahahahahahaha - I hope you have a UHF so we can call you to find out where you have vanished to...?

Mountain run = torque is more important = you have a diesel so no worries
Could invest in a UHF might be a smart move actually.

ebay is your friend! we have a built in UHF in the bigger 4wd, and a smaller Uniden handheld for either in the Tig or for using around the camps or for 4wd recovery procedures etc etc...

Also just to confirm to others that may be reading this and wondering... it isn't a race, it's a fun day out for a drive along some great scenic roads with other Tigs. We have a diesel so don't think you will be left behind somewhere. Does that sound right team_v ?

For sure!
Not a race, just a drive through the mountains to enjoy the scenery and the vehicles potential.

That's ripped it then - no race?, then I'm not going. Sharkie, you coming with me?

[T&M]

Be good to give the Tig a good run .... ... but so as not to make the TDI Tigs feel bad I'll bring the Multivan instead ..... they should be able to keep up to that ....

hahahaha --- if the Mrs is driving mate, you'll have your work cut out to keep up with her!
oh BTW - she doesn't use indicators either!

Okay, i am back from my holidays now so i will get onto this.
Going to take a trip down the proposed path to make sure all is well and passable.

Feel free to invite other members without a Tiguan if you wish.

Should be all up about 2-3 hours including stops for drinks.

Great! then we can make it a TT event on the day (that's 'time trial', not 'tourist trophy' - although we could have a trophy for the winner )
