Am1W. Not driven 12p one but followed an orange one local. He sort if left me when we over took the line of traffic.
It just did not sound that good to me.
I could get an old Ferrari after all there cheaper than a new golf.. 
Sounded better (and louder) than my old GTI and my present BMW. Not as comfortable as either, though.
BTW, the one I drove was a horrid orange, though this colour would somehow suit a BMW and a GTI. 
How about an Aston DB9 Vantage? Going for £35k. 
Maybe something similar in a years time

I have to get rid of 5 of my other cars first.
My goal over the next year or so is cut the car collection right back meening i could have them at home and sell my current place i store them for housing. Which would give me some cash to buy whatever I want.

I currently fancy a ferrari california or caymanS
I get why your here you really liked your mk6 and were for many years passionate about the GTI brand.
