With the desert-tested VW Amarok, the lassigsten of all current Volkswagen, golden age for prevented heroes come. If you look for some adventure in his life can build on the VW truck with 163 PS strong diesel.
My son is still small. He knows nothing of all the comes, I never succeeded, the desert expeditions, I never made, or the snowstorms, where I me not lost, because I was sitting on the sofa at home. One day he will but figure all this out and others as hero worship as his father. He is perhaps even a bit dismiss me if I again don't that in early autumn to minus 30 degrees Celsius heat keeping Outdoorjacket, to then air-conditioned to pause by the commuter traffic. Still, I have a little time to think about me: I have no pickup, because the real adventures of my life, or missing the real adventure, my life because I have no pickup?Performance VW Amarok - a pickup truck with an area of 10.3 square meters. That is one-eighth of the three-room inner-city apartment before he awkwardly forces is in a tight parking space. But the Volkswagen Amarok is golden brown like the GMC Sierra my own childhood TV hero Colt Seavers. He jumped over with his car Greyhound buses and transported the recognizable attractive even for eight Heather Thomas on the back. The colour creates familiarity to the VW Amarok, a car that is full of up in the depths of his Manager framework before courage so equal times. Finally it has trip is through the desert paths of the Dakar - the grandmother of all RAID rallies.
The VW Amarok test car is approaching the civilization by features such as ISOFIX fixtures, make-up mirror and comfort leaf springs. I do not believe that Colt Seavers had ordered these tools, because thus the Amarok is a bit like the Brokeback Mountain version of cowboy cars. As it should be for a pickup truck, his cockpit on the mezzanine floor is located. Although cozy it looks in the brochure, but the otherwise UI flauschigen VW interior designers have furnished it in best hard plastic which harmonises well with the additional free there sturdy base. Front, a center console with the solidity of a brick wall separates the passengers, on the wide rear seat, three are accommodated with them the VW Amarok hardly more knee room allows as a Polo. More would be at the expense of the pick-up.
That is so great that a euro pallet across fits between the wheel arches which hailed VW and certainly has the main clientele. In my life, the importance of a euro pallet so far however remains in very manageable limits. But it must be VW Amarok pick-up Yes what on it on that, so I staple a few things: a few feet firewood, many cubic metres of waste paper, Bobby-cars, and a two-man tent. You could stay here even and would be somewhat safer from lesser beating - if former you would ever do, and there would be that second here. And at all: everything is very practical, but too cheap for an adventure.
So I break up. Shortly vorgluhen, then rempelt the Starter the two liter bi turbo diesel the VW Amarok to. He sits under a hood of the format of a terraced house terrace and selbstzundet spite of common-rail injection in nail-pump nozzle slang. Gruff the first of six long translated passages integrated itself. The VW Amarok with the turning circle of a container pushes of the tabs. His grunziger diesel pushes it on the highway, at speed 170, the wind on the back of gets tangled up there. Because the comfort Springs still for a maximum load of 862 kilograms are designed, they feather with the subtlety of bridge beams. So, the rear axle of the VW Amarok tramples the front McPherson ensemble afterwards.
Down on the road and into the wilderness, where it turns out that even the darkest corners of Germany - so to Schorndorf – are already sufficiently explored in a country where you can take any two kilometres, to go on to get without a coffee. As earlier large sections of the population on the way to the supermarket in lower caffeine had died. I schottere brave a few gravel paths along which the VW Amarok with the standard permanent four-wheel drive, 24.9 inch ground clearance and 50 centimeters wading depth but rather as an insult rather than challenge feels.
And what is left of the total drama somewhat behind the skipping of a bus. But this is indeed the evil to the public transport of persons: a bus is never there when you need it. Still, Where this car does not arrive, you should go perhaps better not. It growls the engine with just 1,200 tours, brummelt of land, pulls up smooth and taps all 100 km to leisurely ride just eight of the tank of 80 litres.
A few days with the VW Amarok, and you experienced the homely sovereignty with which he lifts against all injustice: A squall rebounds on him, lightning ice leaves him cold, and if the road runs out, he climbs on paths further. Soon you can imagine no longer to be on the road with a less talented car.
Of course it tilting in close town centres, but it is how uplifting to take garden waste on the site simply by the pick-up and it then abzukarchern, while around c-class driver be greinen spots in the verloursverkleideten hold of their T-model. We sometimes forget that it is not about velvet-sheathed cargo spaces in the car. A car will make easier life us, not more complicated.
It is also the biggest appeal of VW Amarok: imagine the possibilities only. So many things would be if there ought to be. Declarations of intent - so the refusal immediately and directly admit that it is - never do something are the main reason for purchase for vices such as the Amarok of course often. What one can accuse the VW Amarok badly. The hero what it promises.
