The Golf is only a second car, to commute to and from work so the replacement dosen't need to be large. Mind you the Mrs's new car has five cylinders, has a turbo, big brakes and 4WD...........
Stayed with VW, I just saw this car and knew it was time for a change. Love Viper Green, bit of a Marmite colour for some people though.
She has GT spec, with DSG again. Gotta love DSG in the traffic and when you want to have a good drive too. Black Vienna leather, RNS 510 with voice control, 19" Lugano wheels (rubber bands included), cruise control & parking sensors.
I'm really liking the ACC especially on the some of the country lanes where I live. Will miss the Xenon headlights though (put an order in the powerbulbs already).
I will be sticking around here though as the Scirocco forums seem to be a little quieter. I see Shaun (182_blue) is on one or two of them
Old and new side by side:-
