That reminds me of when I was getting some work done on my CC and my wife dropped me in to collect it in her 6 month old Mk6 GTi and we both looked at one and my wife said, dam that makes mine look old.
There was a mk6 R cabrio parked next to the GTI (out of shot) and the first thing I thought was how far the mk7's wheels sit into the arches.
Thankfully I usually have a stock of wheels and spacers to fix that!
Waiting to see what the Mk8 GTI looks like. If it's a munter (like the Mk6) then I'll look at the Tiguan R-Line for something 'a bit' different. Gotta see what it looks like the flesh first though.
Tall cars and pseudo SUV's seem to be all the rage at the moment and I can see a lot of Golf owners move to Tiguans. The new ones are pretty handsome cars. Even I could be persuaded by a 240 TDI.
