Picked up a 2010 Golf TDI yesterday, and i’m glad i did because they’re incredibly hard to come by at the moment. Still breaking in the engine, loading up the HDD with tunes, and getting the hang of all the gizmos; it’s a fun ride already though.
The turbo charged diesel engine is a hoot. Combine that with paddle shifters and tiptronic and you’re in for a sweet ride. The 50-60 MPG ain’t too shabby either, that’ll beat all the hybrids on the current market if i recall.
Plans for the TDI:
smoke/tint side markers
blue LED (or tint) for the rear plate light
custom front and/or rear badge (thinking either classic VW blue and white or glossy black)
nothing too crazy, i’m not a crazy honda-driving teenager, nor am i made of money. The above are quite cheap and will give me just a big enough sense of individuality on the road, not to mention i’ll feel better driving in it with a more polished look.
