I agree about the misleading thing. The test course is there mostly as a sales tool. Luckly for us we new we were not buyers, but it was kind of impressive the 40 degree angle, the on two wheels thing, and the traction control.

those test courses are sometimes misleading. a guy that held a driver training course sets them up in aust to showcase various types of cars, they really design them to the limits of the vehicles... i.e. obstacles which are suited to the wheelbase of the vehicle being tested are used etc. take the same truck into the real world, and stuff might show the system up. of course the VW people got a bit narky (they were there at the time of the driver training i was undertaking) when showing off the "extreme offroad ability of the toe-rag" and my rusty, beat up sagged out shorty walked through a section in 2wd that was supposed to show off how much further traction control will push a vehicle
