Good to see VW creating another batty concept car. Should be better than the last one which handled like sh*t.

£3.4m is the cost to R&D and design the car. Its a one off, so doesnt represent the actual cost of a production model. Bear in mind, the actual cost to design and r&d a car from the ground up runs into the hundreds of millions.

Hasn't this done the rounds before, about 6 months ago...  not having a digg, just didn't think it was New News - perhaps it was a different car.

Such a good looking car just slightly overpriced... Top speed 186mph? Edition 30 stage 2+ can reach 180mph and costs a fraction of the price.

looks nice from the outside not a fan of the red extending to the headlights like the mk7 but the interior is kind of bland for me although i am currious as to the type of engine they were using

Love the car. Wish they'd make it. For me. In black.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.
