Doesn't look too bad compared to the lame-looking standard models. Shame they haven't changed the wheels. In Autocar this week they've spoken to the designer who says he's tried to make it look less tall, more lower and wider.
face lift mk5! The mk5 was to dear to build due to complex rear suspension and bespoke parts. BMW had the same problem with the mk1 mini
Yummy. Torn between facelift Mk5/6 or Scirocco for next car in around 2 years. Doh!!!! Might just can both ideas and get an S3 instead. lol.
Prefer the look of the Mk5 to be honest. It is good looking though. For the sake of cosmetic changes and 10bhp, If i wanted new, i would just wait for an Mk5, when the 6's come out and the prices fall.

I wondered where the extra pics had come from I like that they've gone even more retro with the tartan fabric
Auto Express have it on the front cover beside a mk1. http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/news/autoexpressnews/228492/golf-gti-turns-up-heat.html
So now VW are stating that this is a "Concept" and not the production model. I hope it doesnt change, aesthetically, or in specification. http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/News/S...f-GTI-Mk6-concept-2008-first-official-photos/ URL above has changed too.
Mk5 had tartan fabric too... I reckon it looks quite good. Certainly much better than the base model, but then that`s always the case.
Too depressing for words. VW are excelling themselves at making dull cars, Scirocco excepted. For f*ck's sake fellas, crank it up a notch for once in your lives.
