Good find!!!  

Not sure on the performance figures though, 0-60 in 6.5??? surely they mean 5.5!

looks a bit too steady to me...bit like how the MK5 R32 was really. It doesn't look THAT much different to the normal run of the mill Golf's.

If you have to ask why, you'll never understand.

Thats the type of market that buys it though mostly 30 somethings who must have the range topper. I actually like it a lot.
Plus after its been fettled and dragged through a few forums it will easily be made to look a bit more special.  :party:
I wonder if Jonny's S3 will be up for sale soon.  :signLOL:

Prices and performance figs are basically not worth the paper they're written on for now, they'll stick anythng down just to have something

Hope there's some nice Recaro CS's and other such tastiness on the options list.
Sideways yo!

I'd certainly put it on the 'needs serious consideration' list - I'm drawn to the fact it isn't showy, which I guess will be most people's criticism of it.

I'd promised myself a Porker when the house was finished, but I can't have a Porker if there's a mini-Danza around (not that one's coming yet) so this might be a more realistic option.

I'd hang on for the initial rush to settle and I want to see what the 35th Anniversary/A.N. Other special has to offer yet though...preys for "Club Sport" R26-R track slagger

Edit the 35th is a long way off, maybe I won't wait.

TT-RS is the way forward. Wouldnt have another k04 2.0 TFSI after the cupra as I want to go forwards, not sidestep along.

Plus who can say no to a 2.5 5 cylinder turbo which remaps straight to 420hp  :driver:
