You are probably spot on there. It’s a shame as if it comes too late in the Mk7 lifecycle it’ll probably be largely ignored.

With order books for the R not opening back up until January and the back log of orders to get through the factory, I think its more likely the non-performance variants of the MK8 will be hitting our roads before a TCR

Some nice pics and videos of the TCR here.

Reckon you could easily make your own TCR without the daft graphics.

Get a GTI Performance add a nice Exhaust, map, New wheells and sticky tyres, suede wheel,

Probably for less than a TCR will be.

Good collection of pictures there! A few that I’ve seen before and some I haven’t. There’s a red tcr in some images which looks a bit suspicious. It’s on proper plates, no black roof and 5 dr. Wonder if someone’s produced a replica?

Now I know that Vw customer services aren’t to be trusted but they’ve just told me that they will hopefully have news in the new year about the TCR and put me on a ‘waiting list’. It’s a different response to the one I’ve had previously. Maybe it will see the light on day but won’t get my hopes up.

I called into Blackpool VW to ask about a used clubsport S and also asked about the TCR they took my details to contact me if and when a TCR is released

I take it you didn’t go for the CSS? I have a CS on the radar which has under 500 miles on the clock.

They didn’t have any CSS on the system so I asked to let me know if they get one in

Is it a red one on your radar ?

Silver. Apparently it’s been sat in a collectors garage to nearly two years. Worries me a bit.

Yeah not right that sat for two years needs to be driven

Silver would be my choice not a fan of red or black
