Golf MK7 / MKVII Speculation / Pre-Release Information Thread

[Deadly_headmen]

True. But they sometimes build RHD Golfs in South Africa.

Apparently there is a difference in quality between German and South African built golfs. Hope ours will still be sourced from Germany

I remember many of entry level BMW 320is in Singapore (E46 and E90) were built in South Africa and had endless problems.

Our 5 door MkV GTI was German made, but it had to be from a parallel importer. Oddly enough, both my friend's 3 door MkV GTI (all made in Germany) and ours had the roof lining detach itself after the 4th/5th year I think maybe they were not "tropicalized" enough.
