Yup, acceleration is everything here since top speed means nothing.

I have both my VW on Oettinger Stage 1 map. More than 360nm torque, super-smooth delivery and improved economy (FC dropped almost 1L/100km after tune despite the increase of 80nm in torque).

Have yet to remap my ECU but I have already done my 15k servicing (9 mths from EIS ). It's very much smoother now. Considering a custom stage 1 map at the moment. Also looking at the GTI too.

Btw, the Golf R LEDs are sweet. S$850 with labour from Sin Ming.

Thank you KC*. I love the acceleration of the Golf. So much torque

Hey Nick, you a Golf owner too! Those are excellent photos.

I have a Passat TFSI and a Golf GTI. Love them to bits... esp after a spot of tweeking.

Some shots of my ride which I took yesterday afternoon at Kallang.

Picked up this cherry red Jap beauty today from the local dealership.

2.2L TD, 163 hp. Pretty light steering but overall feels good and solid.

Nice.

I have a healthy respect for Mazda.

First, for giving us RX7 and MX5.

Now, the first manufacturer to give us lighter cars that can fit in a parking lot in SIN

Here is a picture off my two. The birds always shit on them when you take them out.

Only thing missing now is the family to fill this car up...

Are they made in Germany or South Africa?

Wolfsburg

Very nice.

Are they made in Germany or South Africa?

I remember previous generation GTi, 3 door made in Germany, 5 door from South Africa.

Wonderboy has new clothes!

I was going home for the weekend. Came out of the accommodation and found Wonderboy covered with two snowflakes. (Lobster's words).





So I brushed and I brushed, till my little hands were as cold as Mimi's.

Please kindly explain to me why car insurance premiums for the ladies are significantly cheaper?

This is true.

If we look solely on official stats, the substantial majority (>90%) of driving offenses and convictions are pertinent to males. Men have a much more aggressive/competitive behavior when driving.

What I meant by the word 'careless' in my post was not that women cause the most serious and numerous accidents because of whatever behavior (agressiveness, etc.) When they do cause an accident it may be not of such a big damage, but it is most likely caused by carelessness, indifference, not so much paying attention to details like smooth cornering, or by lack of ability to judge correctly the distance of breaking, approaching, parking, etc.

And none of the above (carelessness, indifference, etc.) that I mention are done on purpose, of course, and it is not my intention to highlight so. It is just that by nature most women perhaps just do not pay that much attention to details sometimes (so I am talking about a 'soft' side of indifference, if you like). And this contributes to accidents, small ones usually.

Hot-headed drivers are usually males, naturally. Then big accidents are caused and, as a result, insurance premiums go up.
