Auto Express article today saying that the TCR will be released at the end of 2018. It’s a virtual rehash of their earlier articles but seems promising despite what Vw uk customer services have told us!

Read the Evo article yesterday. Anyone got any ideas about possible pricing?

My dealer assured me that the TCR wouldn’t see the light of day as a Mk7 and would actually be a Mk8.  :grin:

Got to £35k without options I imagine. Then the must have Akrapovic exhaust option will be £1500/2k. So probably touching £40k with right spec.

I have always found dealers know very little about new models (and the cars they sell!) so most people can know more than they do.
