Just renewed my road tax and insurance for my VW. The experience was good, Allianz Gen Insurance people was friendly, resourceful and sexy. The little ball of sunshine (guessing she's petite due to her cute voice) that serviced me was Zura. Good customer service. Got everything done online and did it within the comfort of my ergonomically design chair.

4 days later and a big dent to the pocket receive the road tax and slapped it on the car. To those that is about to renew their road tax and insurance have fun...

Just to share my experience.

i guess nothing to do with the car itself.
after having it for almost 4 mths, the roc did not grow on me at all. guess i like my car big and bulky. only drove it like 4000kms nia.

Anybody got do sandblasting to their beloved VW?

anyone know who i can go to if i wanna find a specific number plate?

which brand of tint do you guys recommend anyways? i've always used ecotint but at 2K, i'm wondering what other brands can i try out

r u selling ur rocco bro?

details plz...

guys, i saw many polo sedan 1.6 at northport today, new shipments, brought in using 40' container. not the normal shipment mode. nice..i have pictures but dont know how to put here.

I know those who sold their 1.4 Rocs because they upgraded to the 2.0 Roc

keeping for a few more months.

What's the diff between the UK spec imported by parallel importers vs the units sold by VGM? Is suitable, RON95 ok to use etc etc?

ok the car arrived yesterday...i paid the balance and the SA will take the car today to do PDI so should get it by next week.

I wana ask do u guys install alarm on your car?

Like that damn rugi man... why not just buy 2.0cc at the first place... must have test drove both cars before they gone for 1.4 ma right...

got a question on the insurance part...i heard from my friends that we can renew insurance ourselves, and save 5-10% ?? What does one need to do when we need to do claimage from insurance companies? If we're to forego the agents and do ourselves *touch wood on claimage*...

Guys, very nooby question.

On my MFD I have enable my "coming home" & "return home" lights. Apparently when I set the lights to AUTO, I switch off my engine etc only the cabin lights are on, the rest are not on.

For my "return home" is working fine, whenever I open my car door, DRL + Lights are on for a couple of secs.

Also, after switch off enginer, lock car I still can hear the "whrrrr" something running inside the bonnet. Is this normal?

Am I missing something here? The manual doesn't seem to help much.

The sound should be the fan cooling your engine down
Usually after a hard drive

2010 gti selling around rm180k

easy to detect a 2011 made or 2012 made model?

how?

chasis number and few interior exterior different..

but somehow this can be retrofit..

only chasis number cannot retrofit.. lol

just a general car discussion lah..

in terms of documentations, that can be forged rite? so any ways to overcome this to proof the authenticity of the year, etc?

chassis number very hard to forge, it's held down by windscreen (or part of)
