only had the car a week but first impressions are the ones that last-- i love it, mine has the jabba sports upgrade 225 bhp (which basically ups the power to audi tt standards ) why vw did not do this originally i dont know (maybe didnt want people buying the cheaper vw sooner than over expensive audis??) its in dragon green metalic and has r32 alloys which just seem to bring a 10 year old car up to todays standards which i suppose are what golfs are all about, there pretty much timeless.the seats are supportive the interior functional and good quality (another vw strong point)the engine is strong and flexible ..no turbo lag just loads of torque from around 1500 rpm i think its abit deceptive because you dont feel a big power surge just a nice linear spread of power -that is until you look at the speedo, i know the are faster cars out there and ones that handle better but who really cares ( i know i dont) i enjoy the feeling that everytime i have to drive the golf i look forward to it and thats good enough for me ...
