Any of the VW parts guys find out if the parts diagrams are up yet? Would be interesting to see if the front wishbones are a different design to achieve the claimed 1.5degree castor increase. Could be a cheap mod for the Mk7/7.5 guys. Also the rear lower and upper arms. Would be really interested to see.

Morning,

Courtesy of an Irish member over on VWROC, there is the following attachment on the Irish VW site covering the performance Golfs

https://www.volkswagen.ie/idhub/content/dam/onehub_pkw/importers/ie/models/product-guides/2020/2020-11-18/201116_GOLFGTX_MY21.pdf

There are a lot of TBC against a lot of the R options but as it covers the full range of performance golf , hopefully it will be of some interest.

I’m not sure if we can draw any pricing conclusions from the pricelist but front cover does state “effective 1/1/2021 so possibly a while still to wait as well for us in UK
2022 Polo GTI, Reef Blue
2022 Audi RS3 Tango Red
2016 Golf R 3dr Manual, Lapiz Blue
2013 Polo BlueGT 3dr, Blue Silk
2007 Polo GTI 3dr, Diamond Black

If the on the road price of the Golf R is to be believed from the PDF on the above link, the 65345 euros (on the road price) converts approximately in to £55638.  If the new Golf R in the UK is anywhere near that price, it would be insane.   :shocked:
