Title: GTI Or GTD
Post by: Jimmymature on 12 September 2011, 21:52
I'm interested in whether the website should be renamed to GolfGTD.co.uk. :evil:, I assume a higher number of GTI owners on here but more and more new members are going for the GTD.

When you look at any official VW UK literature (including websites) the GTI logo is used as a sub brand to market the GTI, GTD and the R. For instance when checking VW UK used cars all the sporty ones are listed under the GTI heading then they get their sub headings (apart from the R which is demoted to being a mere 'other').
Mind you VW UK don't instill any confidence in them knowing what their dealers sell because when you look in the used Scirocco section they list nearly all the model derivations that have been out of production for over 20 years and yet don't list the R as an option. Do I assume they'd happily sell you a 23 year old Scirocco Scala for £800 but not a £30k R?

I came here originally because I have a Mk2 GTI. My mk6 is neither a GTI or GTD. Should I leave?

Leave? Not at all mate, this is a poll to find out what type of Golf Mk6 the guys drive/use.

You are Krazy.  :tongue: 
The poll asks what you drive? Do you drive a GTD? NO. So you voted WRONG and thus WASTED your vote.  :shocked:  :cry:

They will stick the R badge on anything. Cabby now this (http://www.worldcarfans.com/111091336562/volkswagen-beetle-r-concept-revealed-in-frankfurt)

I wonder if the Beetle R will go into full production or just be a limited run like the RSi. Polo R on its way by the looks of things too, probably once they've sorted the 1.6 turbo ready for production (which could end up the mk7 GTI engine?).

Fingers crossed for a twin turbo 2.0 GTD-R!!
