I'd hazard a guess at it being one of the show cars Neil, only because they'd be more eye catching than production cars and therefore have more glamour appeal up against the new Civic Type R (Focus RS likely to be there too?)
I wonder if VW have brought it (and their other show cars) over for an extended period as GTI international is just around the corner too.
Maybe but in fairness the manufacturer has never really had a massive presence at Inters have they?
VWUK blow hot and cold with Inters.
There have been some years where they pull all the stops out, for example, off the top of my head: when they released the 150bhp GT TDI and called it a GTI then invited a load of journos to Inters to race the 1.8t GTI and 150 TDI up the sprint, and a few years later they brought that mad W12 GTI to Inters. And other years I've been VW seem to just provide a bit of official presence with sponsorship and maybe a few loan cars for officials to use at the event.
