That's gotta be rubbish. The GTi's are generally the last of the models to cease production as they can chuck all the left over good bits on em and flog them as run out models. The MKVI is still a while off (12 months I reckon) and VW are hardly going to want 12 months of GTI customers buying Astras or Foci!!!!

MkVI Golf is due to be in showrooms after being unveiled in Geneva in Q4 2008 (Q1 2009 at the very latest) according to many sources with the GTI to follow 6 months later.
