Wasn't sure about the black shiny inside either, you would need to see it in the flesh.

Is that the start button to the left of the gear stick?

Probably the electronic handbrake.

I was looking at the wrong thing. Yeah it might be.

Also read on another site that the lower specced models will get a torsion beam rear axle like the MK4, but the higher specced models will be have independant suspension like the MK5/6

Golf R diesel?!?

From http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/2013-volkswagen-golf/volkswagen-golf-mk7-engine-line-announced

Sources close to VW engineering chief Ulrich Hackenberg also say there are moves to introduce a new performance-orientated Golf R diesel. Nothing is official at this stage, but talk centres around a twin-turbocharged 2.0-litre engine producing up to 222bhp.

I'm not overly impressed so far by the photos but its always difficult to tell at this stage until its seen in the flesh.

I'm sure it will grow on me and the new platform will be an improvement on an already fantastic car.

But what do I know....I've brought a fugly 1 series  :grin:
