Spoke to my boss this morning who took a MK6 GTI out for a test drive at the weekend. Said he wanted more power (his coming from a Porka Carrera 4S as its costing him too much to run) and is going to wait for the Golf R20. Dealer told him its 4WD . . .. . . . .  the story continues . . . .

If its power he wants he is test driving the wrong car. He really should understand what the GTI is all about before drving it and expecting it to be raw power. Tell him to test an Astra VXR if he just wants power.

Well, his car is at Porsche at the moment for a service. They have given one of these as a courtesy car. Dare I say I think its nicer than his 4S.
