Today I put a deposit on a VW Golf Alltrack in Reflex Silver with both option packs (driver assistance and sports) and a few other accessories. Should be delivered by the end of October. The model is so new it only one like it in the country at the moment in Reflex Silver.

very nice automobile

Because I'm buying the Alltrack which comes with Bi-Xenon headlights, I don't think I'll be fitting driving lights to it.

A very nice ride, hopefully mr VW will not be sending you any emails like they have sent to me. It is very confusing, better mileage and using less diesel with higher emissions or less mileage, higher fuel usage and less emissions,.

. Very confusing. I know my amarok can go from Adelaide to Phillip island and back to Ballarat before it needs fuel. What it will do after they " fix it". Is anyone's guess

This is the colour I'm getting.

And one of the options.

Last night this was the best O could manage in making a fist with my left hand.

I'm now walking using a walking stick.

. Progress in even small stages of recovery is progress.

Swann Insurance have paid out on the bike at agreed value, which was more than I was expecting. I only lost less than a Grand per year from what I paid for it.

And I had more than a Grand per year of enjoyment.

Good to hear the body is mending, mate... little steps, little steps

Shiney · « **Reply #368 on:** October 15, 2015, 01:24:12 AM »

Awesome to hear the insurance has come through and better news that your recovery is going well

That's good news Gary. Small steps forward in your physical recovery is good, but your lovely ST now belongs to someone else, which is bitter-sweet.

Looks like someone has taken the windscreen off it and the instrument panel????

Cerebral Knievel · « **Reply #373 on:** October 19, 2015, 12:50:31 AM »

It's a shame the topbox & panniers were destroyed in the crash

What the old bloke couldn't see. I really miss my bike.

Thanks for the photo IanB. Made my day.

P.S. Diesel in the background.
