More significantly, the performance pack model also gets 17-inch front discs, an inch larger than standard
17-inch discs? That's bigger than the ones on a Veyron!GOD how does VW manage to make cars so dull? It's almost like it's trying to blend into the background even on it's motorshow debut!
And now with some of these cars costing in the region of £50k....why you wouldn't just save up a few more months and buy a brand new Jag F-type for £58k and a banger (which will also blend in,be boring and thus and have the same effect) I don't know.

The standard model averages 47.1mpg
from a 220 bhp 2.0 turbo? thats quite good if true
I'd go even further - bloody brilliant even considering "claimed" and "real world" figures often tend to contradict.. from a 220 bhp 2.0 turbo? thats quite good if true
Just unhappy design outside red stripes included - and plaid/check seats?? Yuk!
Technically very impressive on paper, just so... meh...
So far so Golf, but I am interested in the 5 spoke throwing star shaped wheels. It looks like the wheels are specific to the right and left side of the car. Assymmetrical spoked wheels look like they are pointing forward on one side, and backward on the other side if you use the same design, but the new wheels look like they have a specific right and left side to them, ala Huayra...

It becomes increasingly different to tell which is a Golf and which is a Polo. Save a packet and buy the smaller one.
What a daft comment. Like saying the A4 looks like an A8 so buy an A8.Replace "Golf" with A6 and "Polo" with A4 it it might make more sense.... assuming that an A4 is indeed cheaper than an A6. They shure as sh*t look the same.

I really like that. It looks mean yet understated and the performance with the economy sound like an ideal daily driver package. Isn't the mk7 lighter than the mk5?
Shame it will cost £35k.

Prices for the normal MK7 models have been held in Germany, some are even little cheaper compared to the 6.
So £25k will get you a "basic" version, the low power version.
It will be lighter, let wait for the official figures.
