I won't be touching one at 220 for the price they'll no doubt charge. It's taking the Michael whe everyone else is offering so much more.

And, yes, I'll also be priced out of one anyway

interesting reading that the R brand bosses are saying deisel and AWD is the future!

Sounds really good, but what does that mean for the mk7 GTi, assume we will still get a Petrol 220bhp?

Think most of you are jumping the gun a bit on the future mark 7.
Make no mistake no one really knows what the new Golf will be ( really ) like but we do know is the Golf is VW most important car so it needs to be the best and at worse competitive.

So what do we know ? It will sit lower and wider with the back wheel arches being more prominent. it's been mentioned in the motoring press that the new Golf will shed 60kg in weight. Now if you were to drive the current 210bhp engine with the loss of 60kg in weight to the car you will notice a huge difference in power. My money is on the GTI  going from 100 bhp to 130 bhp add the weight loss and you have a very much faster GTI.

For me my next car will be the Golf GTI simply because for sure it will be the best all round package hot hatch on the road.

I have rejoined the forum and could not remember my password so to stop the hassle I rejoined. I'm on my second GTI which I love the car still brings a smile to my face charging down a B road.
Chill out folks the next Golf will be a cracker wait till the Geneva motor show in March where the mark 7 Golf will get it's first public showing. That is when judgement can be made on it's looks not before.

The biggest threat I currently foresee to my purchase of the Mk7 GTI is the appeal of a Touran.
