I had a Golf6 as a courtesy car when VW had to apologise for supplying me with a LHD Passat towbar loom and then suggesting I was incompetent (they then had to apologise and fit a replacement loom FOC AND provide a courtesy car).
I couldn't figure out what was going on with the lights on the trip home - no dashboard illumination, yet the front sidelights were on. Turns out the Golf6 has bloody day-time running lights.
Now, I'm sure this is all very swanky on social-climbing Audis, with their lines of LEDs under the main headlights, making them look all like they're trying to be a Porsche, but I think these day-time running lights look dreadful and perform no useful function in the UK, especially with auto-on headlights being fitted to pretty much everything these days anyway. Is VW trying to emulate Volvo in the 80's with their day-time running lights, or something?
Far too much of a 'me too' feature to be worthy of inclusion IMO. Worse still, it might lead numpties to set up their front foglights as day-time running lights on their Golf5s, making them look an utter prick for doing so. Foglights - for using in fog, get it?
For reference it was a TDI and it was gutless and sucky and the inputs all felt anesthetised and dull. Viva Las Golf2, innit.
