Volkswagen Driving Experience

But the 206TSI Passat is not as fun to drive compared to a Golf R / Scirocco / Golf GTI. And there's quite a wait list on these as well but it would be good to drive something a little different.

It could also be canned due to cut-backs.

Dammit. Would have been nice to head along to one. I guess after all the dieselgate saga they need to recoup losses somehow. That plus the fact that the performance stable is really only limited to the GTI and R seeing as the Scirocco has been discontinued.

Just checked the Volkswagen Driving Experience site and looks like the site has been refreshed and there will be a 2017/18 event: https://www.volkswagendrivingexperience.com.au/

I'm not sure what that means but more than likely the event will run after the launch of the Golf 7.5 Update - and in particular after the launch of the new GTI and R.

After all it only makes sense that people would want to drive the new cars.

Looks like VW has sent out discount codes to at least some who've registered an interest for this year's Volkswagen Driving Experience days, bookings for which open today.

I received a code today also!
But unfortunately tickets are not on sale for Brisbane / Sydney yet as the dates are not confirmed for Feb / March 2018!

I was hoping for the Brisbane event to be arranged sooner than next year!!!

Well if you didn't get your ticket for Phillip Island you'll have to wait for the 2018 event as they sold out in 10 minutes.

Some small issues with the payment gateway getting hit too many times for payments and not going through but hopefully there's not too many people missed out.

Still plenty of tickets for Perth and Adelaide. AdamD and I will be heading along to the Sat am session at Mallala if anyone else wants to book in on that one.
