    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Feels rock solid on the road and well put together. Engine can be docile and quiet … or fruity when conditions permit!

    Performance

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Awesome… especially real-world driving. In-gear acceleration continues to make me grin. Nice to be able to overtake without 3-days planning!

  • Living with it

    VW Group, so expect no problems in this area. Time will tell, I guess.
