Photos of Mk VI on autocar, not bad, interior looks better, but not sure about the outside, thoughts?

Just saw them and the Mk6 looks pretty dull.

The rear light cluster doesn't have any character or drama to them.

The front lights are far too narrow for such a tall car. That style of lights look good on a low profile coupe but on a hatchback, the proportions are all off.

not a massive change. Looks like an eos/scirocco interior. I like the side profile of the 3 door. I imagine with a sharper nose and rear for the gti it may well be very nice indeed

Typical understated VAG/VW development. Rear lights more like an Audi. Not immediately impressed but I can see the Scirocco/new VW look in it.

No doubt it will look better in the flesh.

                   The front end is ok IMO






                 You can see the scirocco connection on the flank's aswel.







                   I like the 1 piece rear bumper  ^^^   ^^^






Not sure about the rear cluster's they dont seem very adventurious 

All in my humble opinion of course  :smiley:

This is just the standard model, just like when the mark 5 was released , it looked boring. Wait for the GTI / R32/R36 to be released with different styling cues.

3 door looks so much better than the 5.

How real are these pictures anyway. Normally these 'leaked' photos on autocar, autoexpress etc are a load of poop or heavily photoshopped.

Looks fairly predictable/dull. Having said that the design of the Golf has never been anything other than mundane.
