Don't they use direct injection ?

The VES may also affect their pricing.. Hopefully the new engines meet the new standards

 

They have different version for different market. Depending on cost lor...

VW Singpore took the Golf GTi off their price list..... any idea why?

 

I was informed they sold off their last unit of the 7.0 about 3 weeks ago

Likewise for 7.0R which had been sold out for mtns

Pending for 7.5 maybe?

Thanks! Thought they shifting focus in their lineup. 

 

OIC..... ok, good, got 1.5yrs to go to see if the 7.5 is any good.

 

Is it likely the 7.5 is going to be killed off by the VES?

Heard the Golf 7.5 arriving year end. It might finally get a 7-spd wet DSG (DQ380 I think). But whether the GTI makes it depends on VES

if its just for bragging rights that "I own a Golf GTi " then wait to see if the new GTi comes with the performance pack.

 

If you want a more competent yet more reasonably price Golf GTi, then a SEAT Cupra R with front differential, equipe with a Golf R 290BHP engine and sports exos , that make a better bet as its priced below a GTi with std non performance pack.

There's an ad for a Golf SV for 108k today.. not too bad.

But will the real Golf show up or has it been killed by the VES?

The GTi and Golf R has arrived. But the invite is only send to those with deep pockets who buy 200K or more without batting and eyelid.

 

The type that goes, I want " Lapiz blue and when can I collect..." type of buyer. 

 

Only bargaining would be, " I am paying by the infinite card with full payment ....."

It has a new 7 speed DSG, let's see what that is..

not sure,

 

Not on the invite list. But if a well specs SEAT Cupra 300 is cheaper than a GTI, the SEAT would be a better car to own. 

 

Just that some people who buys a GTi for what it is. 

 

Its a GTi. 

 

Something I always tells my wife. Buy charles and Kieth handbag lah. Cheap and good. Design also quite upto date.

 

but she roll her eyes... [laugh]

That's a tough call. Less cars, but who knows how long the Seat distro will remain viable in SG..


The litmus test - how long does it take them to get a certain part in..

Well,VCS will be responsible for Seat's Parts,they all get from a VW distribution store in Jurong...VW,if parts no stock also need to order,the problem is the Service Advisor is SO BUSY[sometime already resigned & a new SA took over],he not possible to follow up your case...when the Parts came in.

different engine. 

 

SEAT is Golf R engine

 

comes with Front Diff

 

BUT the interior is slightly less atas than a VW golf. Unless the next version comes with sports seat.

 

The headlight also comes standard with LED Matrix,
