Hi John,
no that is not my vehicle. The owner is Kevin from Club Touareg. If you want to see some of his posts or contact him than try this link:

I would recommend Club Touareg http://www.clubtouareg.com/forums/ for information on the Touareg, there is an Australian section which have very good posts. There are some members in your local area of the country (SE QLD) who are quite passionate in looking after the Touaregs and the dealer network.

Hey Golfman, wodyameen by sayng v10 better off road than R50? Other than grunt and extra features the only difference is wheel/tyre size and the 20's probably aren't much chop off road either. So why is the plain one the better choice???
Re: what's it like, like i said in the earlier post, WICKED. Still got lots of learning to do as far as where it's limits are but I'm sure it'll be fun finding out. Had a short blatt on the beach at Noosa's North Shore for about 5k just to see what it was like and it handled it OK. Same as anything on the hard stuff, wanders in the soft stuff and goes down a few cogs but not working real hard. Waste of time letting tyres down as there's no side wall to bag but they are a wide tyre to begin with so I guess that helps. Having always had manuals, going to a slush box is a bit of a culture shock. Starting to use the paddles to downshift early to get more engine braking coming into slow corners rather than jumping the brakes.
Catch up, John
