VW Golf R - similar power with BMW F30 328i

I would go for BMW 328i since price tag just 10k+

of course Golf might be more fun to drive. But BMW have the all daily practicality usage.

sorry if I upset anyone here.

Ok tmr i will go to cergaz. One of their sa is my fb friend. Just realized til he updated info bout vw.Thanks

The one in Tesco taman Midah Cheras... models are very very limited.. the retail only can fit in 2 models...

The best variety i have seen are Cergaz and Sg Besi.. what about others? Ampang? Veemer OKR? Jalan Ipoh? Glenmarie? etc...

I dunno if I'm the best person to ask in regards to servicing a VW as I haven't done my first service yet. But so far, there's no hitches with our other Typ 6R Polo TSI which my family owns for the past year or so. Then again that car has less than 15k mileage on it even after 1 year+ of ownership so again, not your typical VW owner.

FC can range from very good to bad depending on how ridiculously you try to drive the car. LOL! Heavy footers and torque lovers will no doubt kill the FC of these cars quite easily.

So far I'm happy with my car and to be frank, when I drove my wife's new Civic for the past 2 days, the immediate thought was.... damn this car is slow. At the same time, the suspension also feels softer and more comfortable over bumps compared to continentals. But at the end of the day though, it is very highly unlikely I will ever buy another Japu or Kimchi car ever again. Once you tasted the power and torque of turbocharged cars, there's no going back

So if you do buy your wife a Passat or Golf etc, my advise is don't drive them too much or you might not want to go back to your K5 again. The driving pleasure is just miles and miles ahead of the Jap/Kor cars

true. after drive liao. dream also will dream turbo car. I kena poison.

earlier, was looking for d-segment when passat was still cbu germany, and have torrid time selecting it. Then decided to NOT overspend on car hence the 140k K5 (48k difference). Needed the d-segment for space to have comfortable cabin room to ferry 4 adults and a baby seat. Now that my house fd2 has clocked over 100k km odo, and 5 years old, thinking of replacing it with something agile, and conti, hence the golf. But now that passat ckd has got the price slashed 15k, had me thinking again. Golf and passat not much difference, rite?

Actually, we had a bit of a loan issue with our new FB Civic and the car was delayed for well over a month because of it. The reason was so stupid that I seriously contemplated switching over to the new Beetle instead. Had it been delayed for another week or 2, I would have just cancelled and bought the new Beetle instead.

1. It's the new beetle, it looks chic and stylish. Even guy driving it won't look funny this time round.
2. It's turbocharged, the 1.2 TSI will be good enough for daily commuting purposes
3. My family and baby will use the Passat for shopping or outstation, so the Beetle will be the fun car a quick weekend get away.

Anyway, wife decided not to change and the new Civic did arrive just before Merdeka. But actually, our case is exactly the same. So if I were you, the golf or beetle would be good choices but ultimately, it's up to your wife. Right now, we have 2 sedans and the feeling is somewhat... meh! The only good thing about it is I can save on mileage for the Passat and drive the Civic every now and then.

exactly ! tot of golf for quick trip to gym, and k5 for family trip to cameron

although i know k5/jap 2.0 NA will be seriously underpower to climb cameron with full load of passengers and who knows what at the trunk, but during family trip will be 110km/hr kinda travel

I prefer not to have 2 same brand car under a roof even if is ferrari. don't know, maybe just me.

if I in the choice, I might choose civic / prius might do the job. not powerful but just a diff breed to change

Hey guys, I'm driving a Polo TSI non-sport and I kinda notice this on my dashboard meter. What does this number 391 means? Sometimes its 393 or 404.



Anyone knows it?

went to The Curve roadshow of VW ysday. damn f disappointed with the service. i was n still am interested in Golf TSI but i noticed only GTI and other models were there. i walked around and went to the counter. i saw a SA standing beside and a lot of brochure. i asked him...do you have Golf TSI brochure? he look me a while and and answered No, dont have! i was like WTF....i didnt wear like beggar type and he macam looked down on me, MF! wtf... wanna tell the SA! dont f look down on anyone! cilaka! if you did your service to me, i might buy from you already.

Distance remaining before refueling or distance to empty fuel tank?

maybe brochure really finish..

Nope, it's definitely not. Because Polo doesn't have that feature. That's why I'm still curious about it. So far no news from the internet. Asked the SA also they don't know.

hello guys , do you know any workshop that can provide reverse camera installation + front camera also for my scirocco ?

PM me ya

I'd like to know that too. Any workshop that can install reverse camera for my golf gti? N how much would it costs?

Its the day remaining to your next service.If the number reach 0 prior to the remaining mileage,u will also have to send it for servicing.
u will notice the number will decrease by 1 everyday

Really? That means I have a year plus left to service? I doubt that man. I don't think so

mileage left before service, I think
