....I don't know what you're complaining about - There's guys on here whose wifeys don't want them to either swop their car or spend any money on what they've got.

I think women are wonderful - Nothing better (when they are happy and everything is going their way). But at times like this I'm glad I'm divorced and free to selfishly do as I want. :cool:

....Agreed. GTI owners have wanted a 4-motion/AWD GTI for a very long time.

....Methinks that the nearest I'm gonna get to an AWD GTI in the near future is with a Quaife diff - Might get fitted by end of this month. :smiley:

ill be getting one because the audi a3/s3 is so old fashioned,the controls on the dash ie climate controls are not set set out very well at all and very dull to drive (imo i was very surprised)and been around for years.The new golf looks fresh.Compare it to a a facelift a3/s3,the current mk 5 gti  is a far better looking car than new s3.

Okay, so I'm seeing a lot of threads saying "my car's this......"  & "it is out of warranty now so..."

I get the feeling that a few people on here are readying their excuses to chop their beloved MKV's for a MKVI! :wink:

Am I right?

What excuses valid reasons are you going to give to your other halves come exchange time?

and....will it actually be a MKVI?

I'd have to get the same colour...... Then "This is the same car, Darling!" No honest would I lie to you? It is the same GTi we have allways had!"  :evil:
