Volkswagen Driving Experience
Took part in the “Volkswagen Driving Evolution” course yesterday at Phillip Island. Good fun, especially because it was so wet.
Recommend doing it.
Parked
Back when the Golf was a few weeks old, I think this was Oct ‘11.
Dub-stitute
Loads of stanced mkI’s in attendance. More shots up on Flickr.
Hypermiling
Since it’s last fill, I’ve been attempting to hypermile the Polo to see how low I get it’s fuel consumption. Not doing anything too hardcore: just running without a/c whenever possible, keeping the revs below 2,000 and throwing it into neutral down a few of the bigger hills on the commute to work.
In the 7 months or so we’ve had it, the average fuel consumption has been hovering around 6.2L/100km with a PB of 5.8 on a drive up to Penang. All will be revealed at the next fill-up…
update 25 Jul 2011: 5.5L/100km - a new record! (581km / 32L)
On the road once more
Finally got ourselves a car here in Malaysia, a Candy White VW Polo 77TSI DSG. Picked it up on Xmas Eve and have been driving around ever since. Below is a video of me driving into work for the first time in it on Monday morning, sped up x4.5 😁
