I did take the family away for week in it(wife and 2 kids, pram, tonka truck, no bikes though) just to prove it could be done
I had a 2010 Mk VI Manual GTI and after numerous warranty repairs I got rid of the POS! I have sworn off anything Euro ever again
Interesting, I have two VWs, a 2008 GTi with 100k on the clock and 2010 diesel Passat. Haven't had an issue(touch wood) a part from a problem with the rear door on the GTi that was fixed under warranty. The only thing about the GTi is they eat oil, about 4 litres in 15000klms. I like the VW's so much I am considering the Golf R next year. Would love to get Falcon GT supercharged or the typhoon but just can't see them making 5 years for me.
If my wife would drive it I would get a pajero as I would love to go 4wd again
