So what are your thoughts on the new Golf?

I think the dash inside looks great, as long as they do an all black version, I hate cream inside cars. 

The outside, apart from the lights and grilles, is 

I expect better from the GTI version though.

I think it will be a grower TBH. GTI WILL be good i think and What about R32?

 Things have to change cant stay the same shapes etc forever.

ITS a VW so its got to be

Will be interesting to see what it looks like for real...  I quite like the look of it from the photo showing the side

[bobbarley]

Well on the up side, it looks much better outside than a normal low spec'd Golf, so imagine how flashy the GTI variant is gonna be!

[boneybradley]

I like it!!

New Volkswagen Golf: first official details

by Adrian Hearn
The first official details of the 2009 Volkswagen Golf hatchback have been revealed after images were leaked onto the Internet.

The 2009 Volkswagen Golf will adopt a new face similar to this year’s comeback king, the Volkswagen Scirocco, while the rear lights bear a resemblance to the Volkswagen Touareg off-roader.

Under the bonnet of the 2009 VW Golf will be a choice of four diesel and four petrol engines initially, ranging from 89bhp to 168bhp.

The new Volkswagen Golf’s engine choice includes a tax-friendly 2-litre diesel engine which develops 108bhp, averages 62.7mpg and will emit just 119g/km of carbon dioxide – meaning an annual tax bill of just £35.

Inside, the VW Golf shares more similarities with the Scirocco coupe, with the hatchback getting high quality, soft touch plastics with a range of aluminium and chrome trim pieces.

The 2009 Volkswagen Golf will also get VW’s Adaptive Chassis Control (ACC) for the first time allowing the driver to select normal, comfort of sport mode to define how they want the car to handle.

Available as both a three-door and five-door, the '09 Volkswagen Golf has a completely new door and window seal design to help improve acoustics and keep road and engine noise to a minimum – making it the quietest Golf ever.

Keen petrolheads will be hotly anticipating details of the Volkswagen Golf GTi hot hatch model, where it’s expected VW will use a version of the group’s 2-litre TFSi engine, tuned to produce around 250bhp.

Sitting above the VW Golf GTi will be the four-wheel drive Golf R32, a more hardcore hot hatch targetting the likes of the 2009 Ford Focus RS and Subaru Impreza WRX.

The 2009 Volkswagen Golf will be the sixth generation of the legendary hatchback which first went on sale in 1974, with more than 26 million being sold worldwide during this time.

More details and prices will be revealed closer to its official world debut at the Paris Motor Show in October with the Golf going on sale in the UK in January.

AND A FEW MORE PICTURES THAT I HAVE FOUND TOO!

well it is nice, only just started to like the mkv but be nice to see one when they are about

[Ivor Mk4 Turbo]

I quite like the look of the Mk6 .......................  Not quite as soft & g'hey as the mk5.

It's slightly coming back to the rugged good looks of the boxy Mk4 - It looks a bit like a Mk4/Mk5/(New) Sirocco love child.

[bobbarley]

On the up side it'll help know down the price of mkiv's
