In my possession now!!! Golf 118TSi, United Grey, Sports Pack, 6sp Manual.

Very very impressed with looks, feel and performance thus far. Takes a bit of getting used to that split second of lag in low revs...

Happy camper!!!

[Ryan_R]

Yeah - I've sort-of got used to it already. I went to drive my father's Ford ute about a week ago and wasn't expecting it to go when I pushed the accelerator (funny that).

Said goodby to faithful reliable 8.5 year old Corolla today.

Now commencing real driving enjoyment with new Golf

RCD500 with Dynaudio is fabulous. Crystal clear. Parking sensors much better than anticipated. (Makes it easy to get into small garage)
As for Adaptive Suspension, really glad I included it, it DOES make a differance!

Running in. Dealer told me to have car checked at 1500K (No charge) then first service 15000K. Emphasis on special oil. In case require top up, return to dealer, no charge.

And now, I have a bottle of good quality scotch (Bought for the occasion) so will sit back, sip, and enjoy looking at my new car. (OK; Also read the "Fabulous" manual!)

Congrats again. Shame the Morton National Park doesn't have many good roads going through it.

Ahh.
But when you get there;
The scenery; You must take a LONG view
Re roads going through it? No such thing. This park is an end in itselt alone.
Ok, there is no tourist round trip! Eg, a quick detour.
BUT this means take it slow and enjoy.
There are so many viewing points.
And, after all, is this what we all look for?
The meaning of life?
Think about it

I wouldn't know being from VIC. I just did a Google Maps search for Bundanoon and saw the 'green area' directly underneath. On some days, a scenic cruise with sunnies and the window down are perfect, and other times making use of the 100kph speed limit on a forest road makes for a fun afternoon. Safety first, of course. Having a GPS to see the upcoming corners often helps massively if not familiar.
