Pretty much the same as 2017 got back to Carfest South and Busfest, Annecey in the summer Wiezndorf German VW meet in late September still running sweet

Just back from Busfest, so time for an update, crazy how quick the years roll by, all good on the Atlantic front, we managed a couple of trips in to europe this year, had to replace a couple of CV they don't seem to enjoy the torque! but all in all still pulls like crazy getting good mpg for a fast ...

Don't think your going to get much good news on this front a CU auto and hills not to mention mpg are the the best combination

As mentioned this is a topic with very different views, For me there doesn't seem much point investing in a modern Tdi in your bus with ANY gearbox that dosent make the best of the mpg and torque that VW spent millions on developing at such low revs, if you want to cruise at 80 mph in a moden tdi yo...
