so they are the same wheelbase?
Yes, doors aside, they are basically identical.
Hoyhoy.
Me like, but I'm sticking with my baby GTI. I was told about the big 3 door coming soon. Then put 2 & 2 together, about $14,ooo cheaper after a good deal on the road even after a APR flash, & quicker.
Are people seeing many 3dr GTIs on the roads? I've only (just) spotted one other 3dr in Canberra, although I know there are more of them around in town.
i only saw one in sydney and it was red :?
IS there any difference in body rigidity between the two options?
Where do you get all of your time Liam? :PQuote:

I will have photos of my new pride and joy this week. I was planning to do it this weekend but this Victorian heat s to much to stand and take photos in.

I was sold on a 5 door, but I'm really not sure now. I like the 3 door more, but the other option is more practical...
Decisions, decisions...
