they use the 205 as a benchmark and then quibble on the interior finish of the 206
i'd like to know how the finish in the 205 was so great to compare it to the 206
but anyway not a bad article for a few picky poms

Subject: 180 spec change

Just been surfing some forums and have found there has just been a spec change for the GTI 180. It now comes with more airbags (up to 9 now) and there is a 400 pound option for a factory fitted JBL hi-fi system which consists of 9 speakers, an amp and a sub (not sure of a head unit). The price has also increased by 500 pounds :(



There are also reports of owners getting 6.7 0-100’s out of their half run-in cars…



Only 3 days until the Sydney motor show :)
