Got my new baby!!!

[VW Convert]

Hi Guys,

My new baby arrived this morning and she is a real beauty. Some observations comparing to the TFSI Jetta I had previously.

1. With top down you can hear the characteristic "fart" from the exhaust system on upshifts and a nice burble on deceleration. In the Jetta I was never able to hear it, very satisfying.

2. The ride seems more supple than the Jetta, I'm guessing the suspension is more standard Golf than the Jetta sports suspension. It's much mire a tourer than sporty although it certainly has plenty of pickup despite being 150 KG heavier than the Jetta. Those who have been taken for a spin today have all commented on the smooth and swift acceleration.

3. Very impressed by the electric seats and particularly the lumbar support that is can be adjusted both in the forard back plane as well as up and down making it possible to shape the seat to suit your individual shape.

4. DSG seems to be different in this car to the Jetta, not sure how to describe it but is smoother particularly in deceleration. The throttle blip on downshifts is more noticeable and seems to synchronise the revs better giving a smoother downchange.

5. Wife is very impressed which is of course most important!



In the showroom looking beautiful



Happy wife, happy life!!!

Was going to take it for a photo shoot at North Head but it started to rain so will do so at the first opportunity.


Cheers

Congratulations...the Eos is beautiful,I am sure you will love it as much as you loved the Jetta.
And once again,you chose the right colour...
What ever happened to the Jetta-I am sure it was sold at auction and repaired...you might even see it on the road again if that was the case.
How funny would that be...
