    Too bad the 6R doesn't get this

    A 6R with the 2.0 CR engine would be the worthy successor to the 1.9 PD 9N3 Polo

    Rocketship and torque monster. Almost seems like too much power for such a small car.

    No, that's a good power. The fuel economy is amazing too.

    If enough people ask about that model and would be serious about buying it then there would be a good chance to get that model in AU. I've asked at Adelaide's new VW dealer about the 4Motion Crafter and was told that if 20 customers would order or I would want to order 20 of them, they would deliver.

    ...anyone for A1 2.0L TDI Sport? ...or anyone for 4Motion Crafter?

    Yep, a tuned 1.9 PD 9N3 with 130bhp and 300Nm isn't overpowered

    The extra weight in the nose is the bigger issue

    An upgraded sway bar will sort that out, easy.

    Yeah but I don't like the A1 while the 6R would be alright

    Adding oversteer is a band aid for understeer - it works but it isn't optimal

    The 170bhp version of the engine would be better but anyway
