The Volkswagen Golf GTD, a kind of diesel-powered twin to the GTI , uses the German car maker s new 2.0-litre northwest michigan vacation home rentals four-cylinder turbo diesel engine to accelerate from standstill to 100km/h in 7.5 seconds and consume 4.2 litres of fuel every 100km.
Awesome to see they didn t hold back the premium TDI engine from the A4 but will offer it, albeit at a premium, in the Dub lineup. Watch for the next Passat to get this too. A shame they don t option it with the Jetta and 4Motion variants. Would be a cracker, especially in the wet!
HAHA i prefer the jacky seats to leather , these are very comfortable , as good as my old 535i seats , always arrive fresh , zee germans do make good seats , maybe the french are better , peugeots in the 80 s were sublime .
I was lucky enough that I was called up by my dealer, they had one of these for 2 days as part of the Aussie test and I got to take it for a drive (they k ow ill be ordering as soon as the mk 7 lands)
All I can say is its magnificent, the interior outclasses a BMW 3, the engine pulls like a train and you cannot hear it inside, I was giving it a boot full and it showed 4.2ltrs/100, an incredible car.
Do what I m doing, peddy.d. I m enjoying go auto dot com dot ay yu. You get the news, reviews, good layout and photography. There are some old hands running the show, names recognisable from the old Modern Motor days, if I m not mistaken.
northwest michigan vacation home rentals I know what you mean. This site is starting to turn me anti VW, just from some of the juvenile commenters. This car sucks btw. 135kW  in a lead tipped arrow. Good job we aren t getting this variant here.
Hmm, all things relative, northwest michigan vacation home rentals Poison Eagle. northwest michigan vacation home rentals The Mk VI GTD put a smile on my dial, but a GTI (haven t driven one) might turn a smile into an unshakeable grin. So, I don t think it would suck . The right philosophy is probably to assess it as a car in its own right, northwest michigan vacation home rentals but that might be impossible for some if it can t shake its diesel GTI image.
Having driven the first GT Sport vs GTI vs 182 Cup through the National Park when it first launched if the GTD is anything like the old GT Sport they hold themselves northwest michigan vacation home rentals very well, especially for a Diesel. Actually, all that torque made the lift-off oversteer even more fun
I agree nobody creates cars like VW. The Golf is the pinnacle of fine automobile excellence. BMW, Mercedes, Lexus and just about any other luxury brand cannot compete with what VW put out. VW is the epitome of refinement, luxury, performance and reliability!
Go to car sales dot com and check the sportages sold recently in platinum diesel to private buyers. The proof is in there.  I had calls from Adelaide and Melbourne with the Melbourne buyer pricing a car carrier to ship from Cairns when the vehicle sold underneath him . No-one would bother for a Veedud.
You would have to be absolutely bonkers northwest michigan vacation home rentals to think that anyone is going to buy a 3 year old car with ~50,000kms and most of the warranty over. Why would they, if they could buy brand new one for %22 more?  particularly if they could buy one new from a dealer in Melbourne instead of having a used exampled transported from 3000kms away.
I m going to call the Australian Communications and Media Authority northwest michigan vacation home rentals  (ACMA) on Monday, read a few of your posts out, get an indication as to which online form to complete in order to lodge my complaint and let the feds do the rest.
Ah, very nice. This is the one that shall get my interest northwest michigan vacation home rentals late year. It ll be interesting to read the first reports. I took the last, or current GTD for a test spin and loved it, but testers found it a little leaden northwest michigan vacation home rentals to be truly considered as a diesel GTI damned good car in its own right, but not really a diesel GTI.
It s amazing how technology has moved along. This GTD has more power torque and is quicker than the outgoing model, northwest michigan vacation home rentals but yet uses 24% less diesel, which is a significant reduction. It s highway cruising northwest michigan vacation home rentals would probably be in the high 3 s. The GTD appears to be very impressive. Looking forward to reviews to see whether it is more sporty than previously.
Hey Cars. It was a very low km example owned within my family. I made it worth not being sent as a trade-in, but it was extremely cheap all the same thanks to Falcon s hideous resale. I figured that it won t do me any harm to own a car outright for the first time in half a life-time.
Diesels are always more expensive to service than normal petrol cars, like-for-like. The reason is the requirement for low-ash synthetic oils in modern diesels. This is dearer than regular synthetics for petrol engines. I don t doubt the service northwest michigan vacation home rentals centers put their cut on top either. I used to get my TDI serviced at Ultratune once they started to get the oil in bulk as this dropped the servicing prices. northwest michigan vacation home rentals All that said, always shop around, and don t assume northwest michigan vacation home rentals VW will look after you any better because you get it seviced at their dealership.
The direct injection TDI is quite loud outside the car but VW has spent a lot on reducing the noise internally. So long as it s quiet inside I m not too concerned about the exterior volume. It s got absolutely nothing on fanboy cars with after-market cans. Then the dummies wonder why the cops are always northwest michigan vacation home rentals pulling them over .
Agreed. I reakon the only reason the GTI would be faster 0-100 is because of the turbo lag inherent in the diesel induction. I d put money on the GTD beating the GTI in rolling acceleration from 40-120KM/H (straight line). northwest michigan vacation home rentals These little oilers can come on boost with ferrocity. In fact I ve had V8 commodores try to race me when they see I m accelerating hard because they can t believe the acceleration it was capable northwest michigan vacation home rentals of. Was even more funny in the wet when they couldn t get the RW traction in their SS utes!
I  love my GTI , but if i was doing more kms or living in the country definately i would  get the GTD , your right about the rolling acceleration, would be quicker , mine is up to 400nm with the stage 1 so its pretty damn quick when overtaking , effortless for country work .
The previous gen was nicely built, cleverly packaged and fun. The GTD is quick and can do the Sydney-Melbourne trip without filling up. If they can sort out the reliability gremlins and introduce affordable capped price servicing, then the new car will truly be the best.
I am a massive fan of this car. What is not to love?  Lots of power.   Incredible fuel efficiency.  Safe.  Good looks.  If it were a fraction more affordable they would probably sell three times as many!  Good work VW on a quality product with the dynamic ability to shame 99% of other new vehicles.  Bravo.
Who else is sick of the shameless promotion of VW on Caradvice? Under freedom of information, I think it would be great to see how much VW actually spends with Caradvice to promote their vehicles, and more so advocate VW vehicles (especially in the Polo and Golf segment) against other small vehicles of the same price and same category?  As someone who is a Brand and Marketing Manager I certainly of the dollar benefits to promote and I am pretty sure someone is pulling some strings to ensure VW get all the glory ..
If that was the case, you d think the deal would include northwest michigan vacation home rentals to moderate or obliterate all negative reader comment, wouldn t you? Why just stop at the road tests? They could hobble JD Power surveys while they re at it.
Face it, they re just releasing a lot of new models at the moment (which is news , right?) and they re making some great cars with nice design and beautiful quality that are nice to drive.  Maybe keep your fingers crossed if you buy a twin-charge northwest michigan vacation home rentals with DSG, but that s about it. Every maker has issues.
Comfortably put your conspiracy theory to sleep. The generally universal praise is coming from all over the world, not just here. If you re right, your comment and mine will be gone, along with uninformed trash written by faceless people who have never owned or driven northwest michigan vacation home rentals one.
See that s where you are wrong. As a Brand Manager, I want people to talk about the product we are promoting. Whether it s trash talking my product or giving it a glowing review, the whole point of any advertising (such as I mentioned VW AGAIN on Caradvice News) is to get people talking about the car. You would be very naive to think that organically, VW are getting in the news here because they ALWAYS have terrific cars. What they DON T mention, ever with VW are the running costs and servicing of the car, especially a DSG service that recently cost $3000; why don t they mention northwest michigan vacation home rentals what actually happens with a VW once you leave the dealership? why do they never say they have extortionate service fees? because they are only paid to promote VW  in the NOW. Fool.
Don t call me a fool. I didn t resort to name calling, Mr Professional Brand Manager. Okay, so VW has a public relations team. So do all car companies. Their job is to get the product talked about. I m not offended by that concept.
I can t believe you are a brand manager. Are you actually employed? Days of Any publicity is good publicity are gone. You want people talking northwest michigan vacation home rentals about your product or business, positively, trash talking it and raising negativity is the last thing you want. These days of global interaction, negativity will kill a business. Meaningless northwest michigan vacation home rentals noise will also kill a business.
Car Advice is a free site, which survives off advertising. The problem they have is they haven t learnt how to avoid the advertorial approach. I guess it will come in time. If this is going to be a true car Mag, then the tests have to remain totally unbiased and paid comments have to be marked as such. it s the law, even on the internet. I m sure they ll get there.
