It is rumoured that the Scirocco is to be released in a 265bhp version, to be called the R20T. Will have the lump out the Audi S3.

i'll keep that secret to myself.

I believe most of us spotted that it was an early concept car which probably never drove anywhere and doesn't even look a lot like the production model, so didn't think it was worth mentioning

Maybe it's just me but the Scirocco looks like a 206 that's been sat on by a fat bird.

If VW want to launch a truly modern looking classic, all they have to do is make another Corrado that looks exactly like the old one.

Yep, torque is good

I like the golf and the Scirroco a lot and i have found that its a very 'colour' car. By that i mean, it looks a lot better in some colours than others.

As for the new golf. Althought its a great car, the side shot looks like it slopes up[ at the back, sort of like its jacked up. Also, its about tie they got a little more power out of the engine to 'keep up with the jones'' I mean, 210bhp isnt enough. Id still have one, but would prefer an A3

bette rthan the cruiser passat i have.

the new golf is lovely inside and i do live the scirocco (but not for 22k!)

We have the TDi GT too - I think it's brilliant. A lot of shove for a car that doesn't drop below 40mpg however hard I try!

Eh? In a country dominated by speed cameras, you want more than 210bhp?!
