I was driving the R32 this morning and randomly decided to pop into VW. Just to have a look around and I also kept thinking hmm, swap our GTI for a dsg GTI!

Anyhow here's the photos of the new Golf Plus I took.

The Golf Plus is better looking in flesh that I thought it would look. Nice inside too.

Here's the new Polo

Yes I noticed the Polo is damaged already...must have got damaged in transit. It'll take a bit of getting used to.

The Golf Plus looks quite nice but that Polo is RANK!

Same here Golf plus yes but the Polo No

Golf Plus looks nice, but do you think it looks similar in size and looks to the SEAT Altea?

Polo doesn't look good at all.

I also saw the two this afternoon and tbh I wasn't impressed especially the Polo[+o(]. VW new styling is getting a bit errr.......bland.

 

[flyfs6]

I agree with you Gary. The Golf Plus is similar to Seat Altea.

I guess they'd rather have people buy competing cars in VW group instead of something like a Scenic.

I just couldn't get my head around the new Polo...I'd like to like it because its a new VW Polo, but I just cant! The rear lights are really off putting for me, they're similar to the baby Seat Arosa and they're no good on the Polo.

maybe its not the new polo but the new small car from Brazil or somewhere?

Nah, that doesnt look like the fox

 

[sonnys_sdi]

Why did they make a golf plus just out of interest?? was it to compete
with the focus C-Max, personally I don't like the golf plus or the polo.

 

[flyfs6]

I assure everyone thats a POLO!

It does have some nice touches (like the headlamp bulb caps copied from the MKV Golf), but personally I'm most dissappointed that the only interior change is a couple of revised steering wheels. The rear lamps have - shall we say - split opinions in the Polo community. The racing version of the facelifted Polo does hold more hope, however:

I'm attending a press day with Josh from this board in a couple of weeks for this car. If you've got any detailed questions you'd like answered about it, please let me know. The new Passat should be there as well, so if you've got any questions about it, or want "hands-on" photos of anything, again, please let me know and I'll do my best.

Deek.

I've got plenty of literature...its a nice car and all, just dont like the look of it (yet).

 

[TouranMan]

I don't like small cars trying to look like big ones!

HOWEVER, this I like!

Looks very much like the front of the Golf GTi !

 

[curley]

Is it me or does the Polo look a bit like a Nissan Almera???

I'll get my coat..

 

[DirtyDogIRL]

Golf Plus looks a bit bloated, but not in a bad way...

The Polo looks like a mini Passat (new model) and just looks so wrong on a small car...

 

[PaulGT]

Golf plus looks ok, but that polo is horrid, except the cup one! [H]

Anyone seen the advert for the Golf Plus? Kinda odd really!

 

[RichieDan]

Which one? There are two I know of, the one fitting a plasma tele in to, and the fat chinese blooke one.

 

[bbdivo]

Theres also one where the guy thinks his dog is shrinking or growing or something.

 

[PaulGT]

the fat chinese blooke one.

That one, very strange! [:S]
