Civic? It's much more restrained and cohesive than the Civic. That's just a mess.

Wonder what's up with the split pipe on one side and vanilla on the other?

Like the back, front looks very generic

Liking the look of that, wonder what the dash is like?

Agreed but think the interior will be the weakest link as is the norm in comparison to other brands in the VAG line up - hope I'm wrong!

I don't know, just the shape of it. First thing I thought of.

I do like the back. Not a fan of the front. The 5 door could have looked so much better if they'd used the same style handles as before. Could be a nice car but the front really lets it down imo.

I'm with Scott, why on earth have they got rid of the stealth rear handles, that doesn't make sense to me?

Agreed, one of the features I like on my car :undecided:

Have to say the new model looks interesting and if they keep their price differential compared to the Golf/A3 it will be great value for money.

As a comparison my Leon was £22k, the same spec of A3/Golf was £5k more which IMO was excessive, oh and a 6+ month wait on them didn't help either. Seat turned my car round in 9weeks :cool:

Look forward to seeing some more details.
