hopefully it will make sense to have LSD coupled with 0.8 litres triple charged engine making 200 bhp!  :signLOL:

I wonder if they'll use a Ford/Renault/Vauxhall style fancy front suspension too?? That + LSD really is the future.

I had a miserable Focus 1.6Ecotreehugger this week, and whilst it was garbage on the whole, the chassis even in Vegan spec was amazing. I couldn't wash the front end out, I just got the back end skipping around enthusiastically behind it instead. It was a really fun car.

I hope they're aiming to better what others are already doing  :happy2:

Good news  :party:

So, now they just need to confirm that one of the MK7's will use the 2.5 TFSI?!
