Hmmm, they actually want to see a good savings record, and with the interest and depreciation on the vehicle you have probably lost $20K in savings !!.......BUT who cares you have a good car that kicks butt and is very nice to drive 😎

Aren't they just the nicest car to drive. My missus has a 2005 V5 2 wheel drive with tiptronic - goes like shit off a shovel. My son-in-law has a 2002 V6 Passat with the 4-motion, but his is tiptronic. I reckon the V5 is a little more responsive off the mark, but they both go bloody well (on the rare occations that my wife lets me drive it).
I find that the adaptive learning (or whatever it is called - adapts the engine management to your driving style) means that is takes a little while for the Bora to ramp up to my driving - it just seems to get better and better (my wife is quite a conservative driver). Maybe that is is one of the reasons why she won't let me drive it much. lol

From your ole' mate Jeff

Hahaha I think you have the wrong person. Certainly wouldn't call me a grown up.
Hence the last fuel consumption I acheived out of the Bora: 298kms out of a 62L tank.
Roughly 20L/100kms 😂
