Easter holz / *sniff sniff* !

Taking a break from my sleep, Easter holidays are coming up and I am feeling like a dooche bag already......but aside from that March has been a good month as I have test drove two new cars to satisfy my addiction for "new car smell".

The cars that I test drove was the new VW Golf 6 and the New Kia Cerato, both launched in February 2009.

VW Golf 6 1.4 Turbo

New Kia Cerato 2.0

The Golf 6 power was exceptional for such a small engine (1.4 Turbo) and I manage to hit the 0-100 km/h mark in 9 seconds in S mode all thanks to the new 7 speed DSG gearbox. New ergonomics and sound insulation makes it a premium music hall on wheels that is relaxing to drive yet exciting at the same time.

As for the Kia Cerato, the 2.0 engine was lethargic with no low end torque but once floored above 3000 rpm it brings the car from 0-100km/h in a healthy 11 sec mark. Interior still typical of Korean cars - cheap and plasticky.

I hope to be able to change to the New Golf 6 (1.4 Twincharger) if bapa gives me the green light...teehehehehehe......

Apart from that, I have been buying stuff online such as a signal booster for my phone and a new iPod battery. Both have not arrived yet, sob...sob...

And my house owner is losing more hair than ever, no thanks to uncontrolled cell propagation. For the weather updates, it has been raining heavily almost everyday causing floods and temperatures are steadily dropping marking the entry of the winter season.

That's all for now, will update soon when I am bored again.
