Audi S1 confirmed. How long before Polo R?

It's true....

I put my name down in September. Ordered on 27 November and VGA don't think I'll get my Polo GTI in 2011. Blless them

Last we heard it had been canned, but that was last May before the A1 quattro had been confirmed: http://www.polodriver.com/polo-2009/...olo-r-rumours/

And that was VW UK, too, who told me face-to-face that an R wasn't coming, and that the Golf would be the smallest R model, but with the Polo GTI gaining popularity, who knows?

ive decided to hold off on the polo GTI, for 2 reasons, im not keen on the wait, and if the polo R comes out and i bought the gti i would be kicking myself, this is based off the differences ive felt from drives in both the mk6 gti and golf R

So we're getting a heavier, pricier AWD Polo now. A 1,400 kg Polo R/S1, how awesome is that!
Sorry but I can't see the point of it. Just as I can't see the point of the R, a GTI that pilled up 200 kg only because it is spinning its rear wheels. Loved the R32 and all V6 Golfs though, they had soul and charisma...

Where did you pull 200kg from?

On an Audi A4 there looks to be a 60kg penalty

I'm not too sure, but the math probably went something like 1500 - 1300 for the Golfs.

Wait, let me get the calculator.

About 100kg from Golf GTI to R

LOL... and where did putting names down early get people with the Polo GTI? Nowhere

It's not what you know, it's who you know?

I have the first fully optioned Polo 77TSI in the Australia

Where's the sunroof?

[Billecartz]

The sunroof and NAV were not available in the first shipment, in fact there are still no sunroof cars in the Oz!
