What would your next car be after the Polo GTI?

I have to say, while I initially despised the look of the 208 in pictures , it looks much better in the metal.

It grows on you - lol. One thing that the 208 has over the competition is a great palette (for a hot hatch) of colours.

New interim car before the Facelifted Focus ST arrives in October, Ford Australia made the deal too alluring!






P.S I still have the Polo

I picked up my white Pug 208 GTI yesterday. Off on a 4 day run in trip this arvo (Snowy Mtns and Victoria highlands)

only a 3 yr lease so can return to VW fold if Peugeot ownership doesn't agree with me Definitely towards the GT end of the spectrum compared to the Fiesta ST... but my old bones dont mind that.

Gotta say im a fan of the wheels on these and the exhaust tip is interesting, nice pickup mate.

I think i'll be holding off a new purchase now until there's confirmation that the new Polo R/Audi S1 is a goer for Aus. If not it'll be back to either the Mk7 Golf R or 8v S3.

The torque vectoring is...phenominal it acts like a rear powered car in corners, I never knew Ford could ever design / build such a car!

Independent rear suspension is also a plus as it gives it a more "loose" rear end in corners which I feel to some extent fights front understeer.

Nice ST. Is it red or the orange metallic? A bit hard to tell for me from the pics.

I'm jealous

I want the new vRS when it gets released, I presume since I've wanted a Skoda for so many years I'll keep it for its whole lease period rather then with my current Polo GTI , want to get rid of it at the end of its 3rd, before the warranty goes though I'll still have 2 years left ...

I'll be also getting the vRS when its out. Its been a long wait since my Polo was written off, but I think it'll be worth it to have something that will still be current in 3-5 years
