News: Back home with the family

Published: 2005-10-14 21:02:39 . Categories: Personal

I decided to take a long-weekend together with my family back home before starting the exam period. I got back on the 1320-plane yesterday (Thursday) and return back to Oslo on Sunday.

Today I test-drove my fathers car, which he recently got. It is an Audi A6, 2.7 liter Turbo Diesel Injection. The car is black, got a white/light interior. I like the difference with the cruise control for one, compared to the car he had before (also an A6, new three years ago). The cruise control now has its own switch, and the ability to adjust the speed with a light flip.

Another bright side is that it has 100l more storage in the back than the prior one.

The GPS system is also quite nice, it is now completely integrated in the interior, where it used to be standing out. I feel like sitting with my own control panel where I can control everything, I get the status of the battery, I get the air-pressure. The sensors that detect close elements now show where on a gradient scale as I get closer to an element. It is absolutely something recommended to any geek.
Damn it that I didn't bring my camera with me.
