Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • NSW MK6 GTi Photo's in Sydney

    Was at VW Barloworld in Mascot this week and saw this.. thought you might be interested in seeing them as they're already registered and on the road..














    The guys at Barloworld seem great to me, bought my Mk5 GTi Golf from Chatswood Classic and they kept stuffing me around putting the delivery back and just getting things wrong so we'll see how these guys go.

    Might want to re-size those bad boys.

    My monitor just shat itself trying to show that resolution.

    The new Mk6 is a definite imporvement in my eyes, the thinner tailights really make the back look better.
    Still undecided on the 1 piece lower grill area though.

        Awesome, much easier to see now.

        I don't really get the front lower lip/splitter.
        There is no gap for air to flow above it (as with the edition 30/pirelli version) so it kinda seems pointless.
        Unless it is adjustable.

        I was expecting something more like this:

            Great to see some real photos, I'm not a fan overall.

            I like the grill and pin stripe, Not a fan of the rear lights, lower grill or same wheels as MkV (could have done something new there).

            I'm sure they will sell well.

                It really is the same old story when a new golf gti comes out, and then after a little getting used to, everyone adores them! it was the same for the mk 3, 4, 5 and now the 6!

                    I can't believe they kept the same wheels!!! Those wheels look really small on those GTI's and actually look like old wheels.

                      x2.. I'm so bummed that they kept that design. IIRC the photos of the GTI had much sharper, flatter rims (although generally the same design).

                      Wonder what the bi-xenons will look like for the Mk5, I predict them to be ugly..

                          I think they look great, wheels and all. Such a step up from the MKV!

                            yeah might thoughts as well! they are nicely designed cars but why on earth did we get those wheels as standard again!! wouldnt stop me buying the car obviously but id be changing the wheels for sure. They came out in 2004 on the MkV and are REALLY looking dated.
