VW Scirocco for Australia. Any Golf R buyers thinking of swapping?

I think we are going to agree to disagree on it then.

If it had an Audi badge I think a lot of people would be supportive of it.

Audi wouldn't do such a crass interior (black on black anyone?)

Whilst I'm sure a lot of people do, I personally don't give a stuff what badge is on something. But it still doesn't change the fact the interior of that opel is crap. Sorry you can't accept that it's got nothing to do with the fact it's an opel.

I personally like Opel, especially the Insignia, and I am also a fan of the new Astra's exterior. The GTC looks very classy and the performance of the VXR version looks promising. I've seen the interior of the new Astra in person and while the material quality isn't as good as the golf, the construction seems solid. I'll definitely give the GTC a test drive when it lands.

I'm not actually a fan of the audi interior and prefer the VW one.
The vents just kinda look stuck on, like an afterthought, and the bulgy steering wheel centre is uninspiring.

lol gawd! The exterior you could, ok, looks "fine". But that interior.... wow! that's just... "spectacular!"

It is not that bad...not as bad as the Ford Focus RS at least - now that is cheap.

Looks like a Hyundai...

It has elements of the Scirocco and Megane 250 in it. It isn't offensive looking. The front is a bit feminine and could do with a slightly more aggressive looking grill.

[Corey_R]

Yeah - the outside looks alright as far as I'm concerned. I agree with the grill comment. But with that interior, I've obviously no idea what the quality of it is like since I haven't been in it. But I just don't like the design. The dash could be leather covered and all the silver bits machined from solid pieces of aluminium for all I care - I just think the design (and therefore look) is crap

But as I've said many times - eyes of the beholder.
If you like it, then good for you

Whatever. Really not that important. I don't think it's that bad. Others think it is a pile of vomit on some worm ridden hardtack.

Just wait for the VXR version
