Like the rear in those pictures, but from the side some of the lines remind me of the 1 series BMW especially the shape of the windows.  The front is quite bland but this is what the new passat headlights seem to be like so can see them sticking with a similar design.

Hope they don't produce that ugly duck. :sick: It's certainly got a beak.
It will destroy any semblance of design continuity IMO. :sad:

And as far the Vauxhall Arsetra VXR is concerned, it might look good, but chav it is and chav it will always be. The over-styling will grate after sometime. An over-styling exercise in the extreme is the Honda Type R GT. Also, as is usual with hot Arsetras, they can never put all that power onto the road. Pointless playing the numbers game.

I quite like to look of it tbo  :cool:

Although I'm tempted to miss a gernation of golf next time I buy a car. Maybe I'll just buy a nearly new mk6 GTi with Bi-Xenons and rear LED's etc in a couple of years time. Or maybe an R or a Rocco (spit).
