It was here, and now it’s gone. Only a couple of hours ago, in the space above, was our friend with four wheels, who ferried us around the Dales for a week. Volkswagen has taken the BlueMotion back, and I’m missing it already.
Getting us from stone wall-edged village to stone wall-edged village with style, little effort and much comfort, the nice man from Volkswagen has collected the keys, and returned OY08 ZYF (or ‘Bluey’ as it was often called) to the VW press garage. We had an enjoyable ten days, though, with over 1,000 miles driven, and many great locations seen.
And, as the BlueMotion is the Polo with a conscience, we went up hills and down dales without pumping too many emissions into the lush and green, stream-filled landscape. Rather obviously, being an eco-model, we also had an eye on economy, too, averaging upwards of 50 miles per gallon.
Full report coming soon.
