Well I have just completed the 2500km return to the UK Christmas trip and I am pleased with how comfy the GP is. I'm afraid I still miss the Touran's autobahn storming capabilities (180kph no problem, same BHP), but outside Germany (or in the cr*ppy weather on the way back) its great. Overall economy around 44mpg (including a good few km at 100mph plus), but my car has only done 5000km. Comming back in the snow fully loaded with a roof box I managed 45mpg so not too bad. Things I like: Speed limiter (great for Belgium) Ease of switching from kph to mph Comfortable seating Smooth ride Headlights No centre console boot pack fuel economy USB box so the kids can listen to their DVDs Not so good Stability in crosswinds and at speed view through the rear window fixed washer jets (mine miss a large patch of screen) Fully loaded hill climbing (compared to Touran) All in all well pleased Joe |
