They've forgot to put the number plates on... I'd get Emp Fab on the case...
Congrats mate !!
Was an absolute dream driving home on the motorway last night.
VW Arteon. It replaced the CC in their lineup, and effectively is the same as an A5 sportback (though more striking looking IMO)
And a whole lot better because it's not an A5. (IMHO, and written by someone who only bought Audis for 20years!)
When we looked at passats and compared to Superbs we were surprised how much nicer the superb interior was. The Passat really didn’t impress me at all.
But its got some great features and the optional extras this one happened to come with (full leather, digi cockpit, adaptive CC and a few other bits) were a nice bonus.
But as standard it has things like heated seats, electric mirrors, keyless entry, electric tailgate, parking sensors and the infotainment system is seriously impressive (but I have had Lexus and Nissan systems previously, which are absolutely terrible and massively outdated). Apple CarPlay is an absolute revelation!
As I've said, the ICE in Lexus' are famously outdated. The newer "premium nav" systems they seem to be putting into most cars as standard now is better, but still mostly terrible compared to the state of the art systems that most manufacturers use now. The columbus is like something from the future compared to what I've been using!
I guess Lexus make up for it in the refinement of the rest of the car, but I'm already happier with a larger, more functional (and cheaper) 'workhorse' like car in the Skoda, which has better conveniences for day to day. the Infotainment bits are crucial nowadays for ease of driving long journeys as most in-built sat nav systems don't have live traffic and the like.
I see an Arteon shooting brake is on the cards too which would be tempting, although because they'll sell so few in the spec I'm interested in (280PS petrol) it'll be hard to get a nearly new one if the fancy takes me.
