- wind noise at 140km/h above but how often does one drive that fast right...? right??

btw, a new range of Minis will be out next year and it will have 4 doors!

actually i find the car's sound insulation from outside is super good. u can't hear the other cars / vehicles but the only complain is internally u can hear the engine and road noise. but on the RE050 seems ok tho still new and of coz a bit louder but i expect the sound to go down after the tyres are run-in proper.

Before buying the 1.4TSI i went to test drive the Alfa 159. Very gd handling and comfortable but dun think is my type of car, very jerky esp when u wanna hav a "shock" boost..  SA explained to me that it's coz it's like a "manual" car just it auto-clutch for u .... haha... if u can understand wat i'm trying to say ...

loving the DSG dude... hit 180km/h easily ..at between 3k-4k rpm i think (if not mistaken) .. had a short burst of speed yesterday ard 2am along nkve...lolx

Oooh? I didn't hear any engine noise when I test drove the Golf (even could barely hear the signal indicator tick!) and that was what impressed me.. hehe

Was wondering if a change of tyres would help with the road noise or not..

I think the 159 is still using selespeed which isn't very smooth... the new Guiletta uses dual dry clutch (thinking of getting the manual as I love driving manual cars)

I gotta agree with you that the DSG gear box is ultimate man!! nothing (so far, the cars I've driven) comes close!

i think i'm reaching 800km. when i hit 1000km. wat's the on-paper top speed already ar ?

Tested Golf TSI 1.4 Twin Charge at Jln Ampang Show Room. Had a test drive along Ulu Klang - KL highway, 4 adult (Not Light Weight;-) ) Good respond and Hit 195km/h......awesome and amazing.....after that streigth KENA RACUN......BOOOKED....;-) kakakaka....its really a POISON car...dun ever touch it...kaka...will got poison hard hard...
 

belum TEKAN lagi !!    wait after 1K+ km, right now fastest speed I go only 160 +.  on highway when trying to cruise at low speed feel very torture!!  due to lack of noise the car seems slower, my old car at 80-100km/h already got wind+noise sound. One thing for sure speedometer is overreading compared 2 my Garmin. 

car  66 - gps 62
      100 -      95
      130 -    124

superficial differences that cost over 50k. very nicely justified. 

autoworld review mentions that Msia is the only market where VW's gti model outsells the more everyday model. guess we are pretty pricey on impressions over substances compared to the rest of the world.

I can't really believe my eyes.. the milege on the 1.4 TSI is out of this world. Just came back fr mlk attending a wedding .. look at the pic below.. theoretically it can travel 700km maintaining 120km/h. (cruise control). And this is after i already drove 1 day in the city from yesterday. That is the computer's calculation. But in actual fact, i tapau the car later on the way home 150-180km/h and still more than 50% fuel left .. i'm really amazed. u get the fun, the speed and the savings on petrol... amazing stuff...  

wat an experience, when i started the journey the estimated mileage till need for refuel was at 330km.. then as i travel more the odo keep on increasing and the "need for refuel" also kept on increasing ... 330-340..... 400...530km    + my odo 170km ... gives ard 700km...    mana ada semakin drive .. semakin longer i can go ..haha... was laughing in amazement with my gf all thru the journey to mlk ...

LOL I really can't imagine a Beetle with 210hp and then with some aftermarket tuning, go up to 265hp!!     

VW just called me, the Polo will be launched this sunday and will be available for test drive that day.

To all forumers/golf enthusiast here...

I wonder is there any RCD 510 units for sale here in Malaysia? How much the price would be roughly? Ive tried googled it but it's not easy to look for it..

Plus, I am looking for Media in cable that supports Iphone and Ipod.. Is that for sale at VW showrooms? Mine supports thumbdrive instead, not compatible for iPod..

thanks

I have seen the polo, it was at the dealers garage. This car looks quite sporty. It will be officially launched this Saturday. I managed to start the car and sit in it. Looks like a smaller version of the golf. Will only know the actual feel this Saturday.
