Free DVD/VW Touareg

   Going back a few posts, Philsy, fair enough, no offence taken mate 
Going back to the ToeRag DVD, it's very good and well worth sending off for.  I have not yet watched the obvious car related towing/launching bits, but the sailing side of things is very technical, albeit aimed mainly at sportsboat sailors.
However it does make me laugh how many time they manage to squeeze in "Mark Rushall, RYA GBR Coach of the Year" and the dramatic turn to face camera from Draper and Hiscocks at the beginning is hide-behind-a-cushion cringeworthy.
Petrol (and diesel) head on, I have to say that the ToeRag is a damned fine looking vehicle, much better than that hideous Cayenne.  Porsche tried to make it look like their signature car, the 911, and it looks sh!t, fortunatly VW resisted all temptation to make it look like a beetle.
And that V10 300bhp diesel is one hell of a piece of engineering!

	Whatever you think of the Touareg, you cannot argue with it's off-road ability or relevance to sailing...
