New Golf Pirelli

[ianking]

Have a look at this.

The wheels are yum yum but the seats however, not so sure.
Could be tempted by it though. But would have to check out the seats first.

We were told the Pirelli would not be in the UK but i suspect the Ed 30 sold well and VW decided to release it. It does look good (nearly identical to Ed 30) but prefer the look of our Ed 30 seats. Same engine though...;)

Its just the ED30 in a different guise, they have decided to bring the pirelli in as they went over and above the 1500 uk limit with the ed30 (2400 were built), countless owners kicked up a fuss and it was ceased with immediate effect.

Its apparantly going to be another limited run model ;), the overrun and pirelli has only came about because the mk6 has been delayed

When is the new MK 6 due? Is there much of a difference. Any pics yet

[Sweeney]

Couple pics floating about but nothing concrete, no word on mark6 gti at all but it IS going to be a cheaper built car as the mark5 has been too costly for VW's liking, they are also simplifying suspension etc to lower costs so it may lose the mark5's handling and performance.

Its due some point next year (was meant to be end of this year)

i like the look of that

Very nice car, and with it being the run out of the Mk 5 probably has any bugs worked out...so completely unlike the R56 mini's ;)
