Spotted my first one today
« on: 17 March 2009, 22:42 »
I've finally seen a Mk6 on the road.
Tornado red, in front of me through Kendal.
From a distance I could not make out if it was a Mk4 Golf or a Polo.

There is no point in buying one if you already have a Mk5, especially as the fancy suspension is a 1000 Euro extra.  They just do not look anything special, with Much Less road presence than a Mk5 GTI.

But then again... When you drive a tricycle its natural for people like you Mr Egg to be envious and be negetive whilst posting rubbish.

Have you not got another forum to go troll on?

i saw one the other week and wasn't particularly impressed i must admit. looks a wee bit like a scirocco from the front, but scirocco is much nicer.

I have to agree with you sharpie....

The MK6 doesnt really do it for me either... Maybe in real life it will be sexy but the scirocco to me is already leaps ahead.

I do actually fancy buying a Trike.
A nice big V12 and plenty of chrome.

Good idea young South African.

I have seen two so far. One in silver in a decent spec. Looked good, especially the front end. :cool:

So you didnt like a standard mk6 compared to your GTI  :rolleyes:

How about waiting for the GTI then making your mind up fully.
