I must admit to having a real soft spot for the toyota glanza and the nissan cube.

Nissan Cube +1 for its styling statement.

No confusing, messy corners or lines unlike many alternatives (including all the new fords, which look like they've melted)


I don't think a semi will give the same results

The new Focus looks like a Korean rip off of the last focus. It's disgusting  :sick:
Not low enough mk5

If you're nailing it, it won't be anymore fuel efficient.

They are though...
Look at a 210 BHP 1.8T vs a 200 BHP Mk5 2.0 TFSI vs a Mk6 2.0 TFSI...they all make the same power, but they get more fuel efficient every generation because FSI allows more precise control of the fuel atomisation, giving a better burn, more power and less fuel drop out...so a 1.2TFSI will usel less fuel than earlier 100+ BHP engines.

A Mk6 GTI is at least 5 MPG better everywhere than a Mk5 GTI...and they are both TFSIs...so what are the gains over non FSI engines?

 

Reducing my Golf count by the week....
..but gaining motorcycles.
