Nice to see VW haven't phased out 3 door GTIs just yet  :smiley:

Not feeling the decals on the side but otherwise an interesting package!

Lol...

If you had the new TCR on your drive I doubt you’d be keeping the old rust bucket

TCR looks lovely BTW

Concept drawing.....wheels fill the arches, minimal gap.
Photo's of car......tractor like gaps, wheels tucked in.
The stickers are a bit Halfords too.
Nice seats though.

Looks so dated if you compare both models.  Come on be realistic now we all love the mk5 but it can not compare

Not sure the TCR is much different to a Clubsport and seems to be a run out special to keep some interest in the model pending the arrival of the Mk8 next year. In my eyes, the mk5 carries its age well and could well be the pick of the various generations of GTi.

They would need to do something to keep interest because if this is what the mk8 gti will look like, it’s one ugly piece of kit I think  :signLOL: https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/volkswagen/golf/92374/new-mk8-vw-golf-gti-shapes-up-pictures

Nice to see all the models, MK7 certainly looks more aggressive.
MK5 still looks good after all these years and a set of Xenons gives an even better look.

Jebus. The rear of the MK8 looks like the wife's Tiguan.

The MK5 was a leap in design IMO from the mk3/4. The MK6 was hideous. The MK7 looks nicer than the MK8.

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