There's also a new estate, the pictures in Autocar show updates to the radio ,heatrer controls etc. anybody know if this is to go across the range?

why do VW bother with a GT version??? wheres the market ?? do u see as many GT's then GTi's, may appeal to the younger chav's that cant afford maybe the insurance or running costs of either the GTi or R FULL SUNDAY ROAST 32?.They should save the money and put it towards doing a decent Mk 6 range next year

I think they appeal to the company car market who are force fed tax until the get into low emissions cars.
