Anyone getting a MK5 GTI?

Just wondering

 

nope

 

In about 10 years time when they're only about 2 grand then maybe...

 

I was thinking of one for a lease car but it depends on various factors... like if my boss will let my post have a lease car for one!

 

Isn't the question better being posted on www.estateagentsaret**ts.co.uk

 

Ditto!

For 20k you could get a driveway full of earlier GTI's instead! Certainly enough for a MK1,MK2,MK3 and MK4 with change left over to modify them all

 

supposedly a lightweight gti is coming out in 2006, supposed to be a 'proper' gti, might look at that, depending on which engine is in it and how much it costs, but still unlikely.

 

I would have ordered on if I hadnt lost my job. Oh well

 

Unlikely, going by VW's recent build quality.

Better off with an Audi, IMO.

 

Can't see it happening in Golf form, but VW don't do a Polo GTI at the moment.

So 20vt Polo might be good fun.
Would love to see a factory 20vt Lupo too

 

Polo GTI will be out next year, probably with the 2.0 FSI (150bhp) engine fitted.

 

2.0 fsi allready out, gti next year will have a 2.0 turbo and 200bhp.
pics allready out of a mk5 r32, looks good, red stripe grille and an extra 20bhp over mk4.

 

Is the mkIV one called the R36?

 

IV = 4

Surely you mean V???

It was hinted that the R model would be an R36 as VW have developed a 3.6 litre version of the engine. I think the pictures everyone has seen will be of the replacement 4-Motion, no the R32 like Autoexpress think.

 

Those pictures were just modified versions of the Mk5 GTI (in photoshop) by Autoexpress.
