I'm still considering a new something next year and the Polo is a serious contender.... and with that sort of power potential it's looking better all the time :DQuote:

From factory, yes it is limited to 250nm but it can be tuned up to 350 just as many tuning companies have done already with the current dq200.
Well I honestly believe the new GTI will be "the" small car to have ..... with a Stg1 tune the new Gen3 1.8 EA888 will be making the same power as the MK6 Golf GTI with a stage 1 tune (50NM more actually) and in a body that is ~200kg lighter. It will be an epic drive :)
Ours will be a 5 door manual ..... possibly silver, possibly red ..... (if red it will be named Baby Red) ....
Its funny actually, a year ago I said the Amarok (Big Red) likely to be my last VW, and now I'm already planning 2 more ... :facepalm:
Yes the new Polo GTI is going to be one great little hot hatch.Quote:

Mk7 R is the other :) Amarok is a keeper so the R will wait till I've gone Stg 3 (K04) on that.Quote:

Hey, let's not sully the 1.2t manuals. Seems it's just the useless DSG twincharge combo.
