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,

  • Toyota 86 vs Tiguan



    I love having a blast on closed race track circuits and 1/4 mile runs which are way way safer... but some people love doing it on public road instead.

    I can't see any problem there You have to keep a good situational awareness for not let these things happen! However if that exit is for a freeway entrance I will show him which is which

      oh yeah, i had been watching him tailgating on my tail before the lights. but hey it is a one lane road and in Runcorn / Sunnybank area of Brisbane where probably less than 50% of drivers there got their license locally, I am always extra aware of my surroundings when visiting that area

      i have seem amazing driving on that particular road, at one stage I saw a Camry chinese driver attempting crossing the road over a concrete island but he failed to drive over it and then he drove on the opposite direction!

      he should have queued behind me, but he chose to do what he did without looking ahead before turning (for oncoming cars) carefully, it could have been a small crash .

        ...and probably sped up too, since it didn't look like he was overtaking you at the legal speed to me.

          I also had a yellow Ford Focus ST (nice looking car I must say) tailgating me, at the exact same location.
          I mean...what's wrong with these people? Tailgating is dangerous!
          And stop picking on Tiguans cuz you never know what's gonna happen..
