    Hobart launch night

    We had the official launch of the Mk6 tonight at the local dealers in Hobart. Wow, neat looking golf in the flesh with a much nicer feel to the dash. Soft plastic as opposed to the hard dash of the Mk5. Come on the GTI, I might be interested in one of them. While I was at the night I checked out the Passat CC. A lot of car for the same money as the R36 Passat. Biggest boot I have ever seen as well!!

    A great night - nice food & wine

    I was super-impressed with the Mk6 - much better than I anticipated. The stance and shape is very subtle and classy. Interiors look a real step forward, despite being similar in design. The only point I didn't like were the headrests which force my head/neck forward into an awkward and uncomfortable position.

    I was gobsmacked by the 118TSI's urban fuel consumption figure of 7-odd litres/100km! Stunning economy!
