Agreed. Focus is a man's car. Fiesta teenager.

Horrible seat material.
There's a reason behind the upholstery; here's a Golf 1 GTi's well-worn interior:
Local cars are likely to have plain leather seats though.

You can throw around the smaller hatches without it feeling like a barge.

+1. I love my FiST. Probably is more of a boy racer though. But definitely not a womens car.
Puts a smile on my face every time I put my foot down

VWSA needs to bring 3-door & 5-door as well as DSG & Manual options of said Polo GTI. We all know the 3-door option will not happen. VWSA just flat out refuses to bring any 3-door GTI model.

I personally feel that the 3 door actually doesn't really add to a more sporty look on this car (unlike a BMW 3 vs 4)... So in that case, I'd go for the extra practicality which I guess the majority would go for

Manual's coming, but not 3 doors. Our market's such that 3-door hatches don't tend to sell well when compared to 5-door variants. Add a ± 5 month lead time from a dealer placing an order for stock, to the car arriving, and it becomes clear why they'd rather have any given spot on a ship occupied by a 5-door that will sell in 2 weeks, rather than a 3-door that might sit for 2 months.

This, I love my FiST as well. With full exhaust, CAI and stage 2 SW it's a blast.

Not impressed. It looks cheap.

Que?
Have you seen a recent Polo up close? Like, at all? You can certainly find reasons to criticise the car, but unless you live in a world of Moët and Bentleys I don't think 'It looks cheap' can reasonably be one of them. Cheap in comparison to what? If your answer is 'Hyundai' or 'KIA' (or Opel
), I'm gonna punch you through your screen.

SA spec cars won't be getting those seats. Every GTi released had those seats, but we never got them...
Funny all the ST guys commenting, this will be faster than the ST especially with modifications.
One things for sure it will be very fast.
Its just the look is quite dated, they only changed the bumper, put on uglier wheels.
But 1.8 is its best quality.
