Read this if you want to retain your existing number plate!

I was faced with a dilemma while I was transiting from the old car with the new. In fact I was contemplating on giving up the familiar car plate number which was with me for the last 9 years. It has a hard decision especially since the old plate held sentimental values.

The dilemma started because I was unsure if I can get to retain the existing car plate number since it was under my dad's name. While I was at the VW showroom,  I was told that I can't transfer the plate under my name.

After almost 2 months of driving the Polo, I must say that it really delivers and performs as advertised. However me being ME and to my lovely wifey's dismay, I was not able to resist the lure of the DARK side. Therefore, the car will not stay in stock condition for long. Warranty issues aside, I have been a really bad boy, surfing websites to source for aftermarket parts.

However to my disappointment, there ain't much aftermarket parts available for modifications  in Singapore. So I have to take the next step and look outside of Singapore and look at the EU countries such as Germany, England, Poland, etc to build my poison list.

Repost from German Car Blog : World's tightest parallel park! 

VW is now the holder of the tightest parallel parking record.

" German stunt driver Ronny Wechselberger managed to slide a Volkswagen Up! into a space of just 12 feet and 0.88 inches. Given that the three-door Up! takes up a full 11 feet and 7.37 inches of space itself, the remaining room front and rear was less than the length of a Bic pen. The margin makes the Mini effort seem down right spacious by comparison. Ronny C’ Rock, as the stuntman is also known, pulled off the feat at Flugplatz Kindel in Eisenach, Germany. "

I chanced upon this extraordinary VW robot done up by nerviswr3k from the following forum: kidrobot.com. Enjoy!
