The A3's fixed rear roll-over hoops spoil it. The Golf is much cleaner with the roof down.

@Jimble: Are you sure with a gray car? If you had pink pounds, your rear would have LEDs by now. :kiss:

I think we are all being very harsh and need to get in touch with our feminine side  :smiley:

Still think it's like a proper sized convertible that's been shunted up the rear.

Runs away and waits for the innuendos to roll in!!!

Well, I saw this car for the first time in the flesh today sat outside the VW stealer in Huddersfield. A silver GT model and yes, it still looks like a giant shoe.
Unfortunately, the wife still says she likes it!!!!
So in we bob for a brochure and price list and it turns out a 1.6 diesel (all the might of 105hp!!!) SE with the spec she wants (Metallic, heated seats, folding mirrors and foglights - I can't believe I have to pay extra for foglights) comes to a not insubstantial £24 455. Even if I got a 6% discount I'm still looking at £23000.
This is a lot of money for a small, slow shoe!!!!
However, she has finally admitted the only car with a roof she'd have is a Scirocco so there's hope yet.
