I like it too - looks a bit like a squashed Tourag!

Looks just like a face lift
think it looks a bit like a hatchback eos , or possibly a bigger polo

No problem with me! Also very sceptical that the Mk6 will actually look like that as the pics are old

Hey
(think it looks a bit like a hatchback eos , or possibly a bigger polo)

Will try get more info

A merger would make sense as no one seems to buy polos these days

I've always looked at Polos as either the poor brother of the Golf or a women's car.... maybe the first puts both sexes off and the second puts men off which translates into lower sales?? Just a guess...ÂÂÂ
As for the Mk6 Golf GTI, I don't think I will be buying another Golf after the Mk5 - I will keep my little Golf collection Mk1 GTI Campaign only 63k miles, will be looking for an exceptional Mk2 Golf 16v <40k miles next year and my Mk5 Edition 30 which will be pampered, have some strategic panels replaced with carbonÂÂÂ
, a Milltek exhaust, tuned and driven sparingly and VERY VERY hard
.ÂÂÂ
I think I will look at other vehicles like the Audi RS4 - 2nd hand though because I'm not that rich - or even a Porsche (straying away from familiar territory - I have owned 14 cars all VW Golfs except a Nissan MicraÂÂÂ
and a Subaru Impreza STIÂÂÂ
....
But I'ill always have my Golfs because I just love 'emÂÂÂ
HOWEVER.... if VW pull out something like the R-GTI....ÂÂÂ
But given their history, that will be very doubtfulÂÂÂ
