That interior looks amazing. I think they have styled it on the edition one recaros found in rare mk2's

Today's rumours suggesting half cage option and mechanical LSD rather than Haldex.
Sideways yo!

I would hope its an LSD, haldex would ruin the idea of the GTI.

The delivery time is on the R is 20% longer than you've ever kept a car for  :signLOL:

Nahhh stick with the R. This is the Golf version of the Seat Leon Cupra  :laugh:

I mean the Haldex e-LSD like the GTI's perf pack, not the faux-4WD version.
Sideways yo!

Ahhh sorry didn't realise that's what it was called, haldex means 4WD to me, yeah a mechanical one would be much better.

Isn't the fancy Leon a lot faster around a track than an R with only 2WD and that Haldex diff?

Now imagine what they could do with the GTI if they really tried....

The Leon 280 is marginally faster around a tight track than the R (Autoexpress have a video on Youtube)
