New Golf VIII isn’t due until early next year so GTI variant won’t be due until next Summer I would imagine.

I believe VW have said that the performance versions will be available from the off with the MkVIII Golf. No 3 door versions though so I'm out already.

Was out in a tcr on Friday night. Superb thing. Great all rounder, possibly a stretch at the price it’s at but when they’re sub 30 they’ll be a better proposition.

Went in and as expected no chance of getting that car. Absolutely impossible to deal with as always:joy:

Currently trying another route here, it will be mine...eventually

I also cant really say anything bad about Agnews on Boucher. They matched the coast2coast price and also gave me the loan of a tiguan when my R was delayed.

It’s the same as that but without the graphics, think it has a black roof.

I sometimes think it’s like having an rs3 and then going to the s3 if you have an r and go for a Gti or am I missing the point of the trick set up of the tcr .??

No in my opinion it was the last of that model and they stuck a different colour in it and some small changes.

I've seen 4 TCR golfs, don't see the big deal with them, an R is a better car for a few grand less. You'll look like a tit trying to pull out of a junction on a wet January day :joy:

You're just paying for exclusivity imo

Don’t go by other people, everyone has their own opinion. Go and drive both manual and DSG.
