Volks Wagen

To most of the world, Germany is famous for two things

Hitler and their schlongs

well I guess the third being the VW beetle

I guess it is kind of hard for any company to break the mold

especially when you've created something so special

The VW beetle...

made cheap, hardy, and lasting

I should know (though my latest experiences say otherwise)

But I must say that Volks Wagen has truly been doing well for themselves

From the classic VW van, to the modern, Polo GTi,

they have yet to go the way of the Nazi's...

which I suppose is the reason why this happened

This was the first day of the VW Das Auto Show 2011

being opened to the public...

If you cannot tell... that minute white dome up ahead is the showroom

After 10 minutes I had to rush off...

but perhaps if I had stuck on for another hour or two I may have reached

for many, the entrance to the promise land..

but for most, this is the experience you're left with

thankfully radio DJ's were there to liven things up

be it MY FM..

or HITZ FM

 I must say I always admire those who do emceeing...

the enthusiasm they have to put on

in spite of the lack lustre response of indifferent Malaysians

 and the need to have interesting games and ideas

 not sure what's with the chickeedess though

 especially this one!

 who was teaching these guys a game of

stone, water and bird...

though looked more like a bomb drill

and on day two I also discovered this two clowns...

literally

 

(didn't really have a nice photo of this one...

makes you wonder what he was doing though)

I'm sure it's not what you think it is...

they were there to put a smile on the faces of the little ones

take this little rascal.. check out his skeptical1 before look

and the elated after look

boys and their swords....

and men and their plungers

of course trust the capitalists 

to, well, capitalise on the opportunity to set up shop

but I was seriously intrigued 

as to what could cause this..

 and this...

 large exodus into the showroom...

and it must have been good for these fellas to be this happy in anticipation

be it rain or shine

 

or security control

but not everyone could stand up to the heat 

and decided to bow out and chill...

and just watch the show from outside

interestingly enough,

you could also find the VW Golf GTi

 

and the updated beetle 

 

(though I wondered if they had the latest on inside)

but I guess I'll never know....
