    Looking for a MK4 R32 as the next car after the 6R GTI... a downgrade, but I'm missing the stick.

    The Octavia appeals to me much in the same way, its $4,500 cheaper than the Golf, standard Xenons, has better space and infotainment, and I like the rarity and cool options it has. All with the same drive train as the GTI. That said the GTI has a sportier ride, adjustable suspension and is more readily available at the moment.

    That's more or less why I bought the Polo GTI too. Why pay over $10k more for similar if not the same performance? The Skoda ap-peals in the same way, but they weren't out when I bought my GTI and to be honest, I'm pretty happy with my choice!

    Or wait until the Polo GTI 2015 comes out with the manual??

    Or go a manual mk6 Golf GTI?

    I was gunning for either a MK4 or a MK5 R32, the missus has a MK5 GT and I was totally buying into the amount of space it gets and the general fit ... I would be more keen on the MK7 you have but that's way out of our price range here in NZ the MK6s here are all DSGs; the manuals are rare hence ++$

    Have a base fiat 500 rental car in America right now and maybe it's just the north american build but I'm not impressed. Space inside is fine for me but the steering feels really vague and floaty and oh god the engine. The American model has this NA 1.4L engine that coupled with the auto transmission is so insanely gutless and laggy and it sounds terrible to boot.

    I'm driving on all of these great windy mountain roads wishing I had my polo with me

    I've only had my Polo GTi for 9 months but already think about what may come next on day. Though I still love it, minus the oil consumption.

    What do people think of the new WRX? My work has a Subaru dealership and don't look too bad in person I must admit...

    Sure do, isn't fantastic, but I have been sitting in lots of awful traffic etc lately which hasn't helped.

    I don't know what I'd go for next. The Interiors still put me off the WRX's though. But I've also considered everything from an Evoque to a 3 series so my tastes in cars are all over the place of late!

    What would your next car be after the Polo GTI?

    Did somebody mention the new Skoda Octavia RS??

    I ordered the new RS Combi, all the specs including Tech Pack, Adaptive Cruise, Bi-Xenon headlamps with swivel, glass sunroof, keyless start and entry etc Everything except leather seats. You name it I got it!

    Pick it up in September.

    Someone want to buy my 6R GTI Polo?

    Matt.
