Ah that’s better

The Gorse Fox and Silver Vixen presented themselves at the desk of the nice man from VW. As arranged a new Passat CC was waiting and a few hours of test driving were on the schedule. The weather was grey, miserable, wet, and basically inclement but the Gorse Fox consoled himself that one day he may need to drive up in the North or in the Midlands so the test was still valid. It is better to be sure!

The comparison with the test drive of  Thursday was a case of chalk and cheese. The engine and transmission in this was so refined and responsive – and the fuel consumption clearly better. Still a long lead time on the build to order option, but GF needs to get something on the books.

Final decision in the next few days.
