Saw a black Mark VI heading up Glen Osmond Road this morning... funnily enough I didn't see any at the Solitaire service joint.

Looked at a couple Mk6 on Monday at Solataire, not that impressed.
I'm probably biased as I'm new to my Mk5, but the exterior changes to the Mk6 are not that nice. I did like the look of the interior

From side on it almost looks like a '90s Dahatsu Charade (esp the tail lights)
Doesn't look as nice or as distinctive as the MK5 in my view.

Ok maybe that was a bit harshOriginally posted by phaeton View PostDoes not
But look at it in profile - esp the rear bit. It really does remind me of another, less distinguished hatck (can't think of which one, but maybe a Suzuki? 
). Not as good as the MK5...
Maybe it's better in the flesh. Maybe it will grow on me.

I thought the exact same thing about the VI until i went to a dealership and compared the two cars parked next to each other.
The Mk 6 looks a hell of a lot better than the Mk 5.Comment

I've not seen a 6 in the flesh yet so I can't really say. And even the 5 base models look a little plain compared with say a GTIOriginally posted by saveferris View Post
