havnt seen one yet?!?
« on: 08 August 2009, 11:21 »
is the mk6 GTi rare in the uk?  I spend a LOT of time driving on motorways and havnt seen one yet.  See loads of mk6's but no GTi's

They're only just beginning to trickle through on to the market. I hadn't seen any either, be it in showrooms or on the road, until mine was delivered last week.

I too cover loads of miles on a weekly basis and apart from mine have only seen one other parked up near where I live (i obviously live in a wealthy discerning area :grin: :grin: :grin:.

I reckon give it 6 months and they will be much more common though, like any new car really.
