^I think he's pulling your leg mate! They built mk1's in SA up until recently but i doubt VW would swallow the expense of all the tooling etc over there to build the mk6 when the 7 isn't too far off. :sad:

We should organise a forum members trip out there with you as our guide as you've been there already. Could be fun.

We can certainly tell them the error of their ways.

I wonder if GolfTi's GTI is fully painted, as he was there during its production.

^I think he's pulling your leg mate! They built mk1's in SA up until recently but i doubt VW would swallow the expense of all the tooling etc over there to build the mk6 when the 7 isn't too far off. :sad:

I did think it sounded a bit odd, and i seemed to know more about The GTI than he did last time i spoke with him

I quote, Cousin - 'it's a good job your thinking about the mk6 as the mk5 was a massive flop for the gti brand, the new one is a much better car'

Me - 'Don't you mean the mk4 was the flop and the 5 was the revival car'

Cousin - 'No its the 6 thats the all new design'

Me - 'Ok mate  :laugh: '
