R32 - Opinons please!!

[Rhyso]

I've been having strange thoughts about chopping in the Meg for a newer golf    Got to run it by the missus and then see what MK she'd like.  It'd have to be a V6.  Any idea when the MK6 pics are out?  Or when the car will be out?

there won't be a V6 MK6 unfortunately

How comes?

too thirsty and uneconomical i'm guessing - smaller, forced induction engines are the future

MK6 GTI is expected later this year, autumn time I think. At first I was very disappointed as it was far to similar to the MK5 and was more of a MK5.5 than a MK6, but its grown on me lots.

Well I still want one

I like the idea of a MK6 3 door, a lot will be going for the 5 door or the scirocco, so should be a bit less common.  As for the V6, surely if there is a market, they'll build one..

As for the OP - do it.

they've already said they won't.. F.I has won, biggest you might see is a 2.5 turbo (crossing fingers for that in a 4wd R format)

[MrTurner]

Is that a won't, or a won't, if you know what I mean?  There's already a V6 in the TT, or do you think they'll just put one in the scirocco?

Out of interest..  What is different suspension wise on the R32 compared to the GTI?  Very seriously considering a minter MK4 R32 instead of the Megane    Really not that struck with the look of the MK5.

stiffer springs (might be hearsay), uprated ARB's and obviously a different setup entirely on the rear being 4wd.

Better steering feel, & a quicker rack!
