Golf GTI, My car for the day

[komotar]

This baby was my ride today. The chief editor caled me up and said I should go take pics of the car for the next issue and that the car is waiting for me at the office.

The car sounds, handles and looks like a dream.

I can finaly say from my own expirience that the GTI is a proper GTI again. It's not all about the power and grunt. It's about sophistication and the X factor. This car has plenty of both.

I drove it tough and hard. I emptied half the fuel tank in the first 3 hours, then I eased down a bit.

The steering wheel gave me a feeling like I was born with it in my hand. It's just perfect. The DSG gearbox would be my choice if I bought this car and belive you me when I say it shifts realy well.
When you shift down, it blips the throtle, when you shift up you hear a deep rumble coming out of the exhaust.

I made a short vid. Comming in the next week or two, along with the stuff from the track last saturday.

I'm really impressed by this car. It's so poised and calm in stresfull situations.

Enjoy the pics.
