VW - Das Auto !

Its past 12 o clock and I have been trying to make sense of the Pilot plant subject portion.A few parts did make sense and then now nothing seems to be going into my head so instead of calling it an early night I came up here not deciding what to post at all.

So vaguely I'll start off by saying that my project is finally coming to an end. All that mad running around to CPRI is finally paying off and my project has turned out pretty well so far.Thankfully we dont have to work on the report now, we can do it after the external theory exams.Thats a sigh of relief esp when the exams are just more than a week away.As always the preparations have just begun after running around for the last set of internals.

I dont know if I am looking forward to the time after the exams,initially I was happy all this is finally over but now I am not too sure if I am happy with it.I think I have roughly two months off till I think of doing something else which is still very uncertain.

Now I'll move on to something I've been very fascinated bout - The new Volkswagon Polo in India.It was launched a few months back and yet most people are not aware of the brand value.Still people stick to the very old Maruti and Hyundai when polo costs nothing more than what they cost.It lies in the same segment and offers the same mileage as the Ritz.Ritz offers a 21kmpl and Polo 22kmpl for a Diesel engine.Ritz diesel costs in the range of 4.63 lac to 5.20 lac depending on those LDI,VDI versions.Polo starts at 5.32lac and goes upto 6.7lac.When you consider buying the Swift fully loaded you end up paying a little more than 6lac and then even the Hynudai I20 goes more than 7lac for a fully loaded diesel version.Why chose i20 when you have Polo! There is a difference ofcourse here in Polo, the German Engineering involved.You pay for perfection at the end of the day.

Das Auto.German Engineering.Now Made in India.




I'll take leave now as its past 1 I guess.Rest soon.Cheers!
