the wethandling sportauto test was driven with DSG

maestro 09/12/07, 21:30:36
0-200km time is 33.8 seconds. that's not good result for such a gti like this.

Anonymous 26/12/07, 13:47:02
I've read Sport Auto test of VAG 2,0T compacts, and it went 1:21.4(or 1:21.3, not sure) on Hockenheim shorttrack, I'm pretty sure it had done 1:21.8 on another sport auto test. What's this 1:19.6 lap time all about?

Georg 06/03/08, 22:10:01
The "new" GTI Tsukuba laptime is from the same best motoring compare. At youturb the time attack time was missing, this is the time attack laptime.

Georg 06/03/08, 22:23:03
Anonymous this 1:19.6min laptime was from a direct sportauto compare to a 2007 Honda Civic Type R in the 4/2007 sportauto magazine. VW changed the tier supplier early 2007 for the GTI The Bridgestone Potenza RE050A improved the GTI laptime a lot. I have scanned the laptime sheet for you see here.. http://a779.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/30/l_d17019f4b2e6e 21d47c0cac9b85a16b2.jpg

The link doesn't open, but thanks for the info. Funny thing is that now it's quicker than Edition 30.

Georg 07/03/08, 09:02:30
I have post the laptimesheet in the Forum in the "wrong technical data" section... there you can see it! The Edition 30 was tested by a other sportauto test driver. GTI was driven by Jochen Übler, GTI Edition by Anja Wassertheuer 0.7s different can have many reasons.. weather, driver, track condition, the Edition 30 is slightly more heavy

Georg 10/05/08, 07:44:00
again that list is no referenz.. don´t you have direct links to the car magazine pages ?

maestro 10/05/08, 13:46:00
not yet but I'm searching. also powercar magazine's web site is german. I can't read it.

Georg 10/05/08, 17:57:54
I know the powercar magazine and I can read german as a German. But this test is not online :( On the the powercar 2/2007 cover which is online you see that they have a compact class compare in the magazine but the test is not online :( http://www.autozeitung.de/online/render.php?render=6936

Anonymous 06/06/08, 22:41:44
Comparing its track performance with the Focus ST one, it should be a bit higher than it is. Maybe the problem relies on INTA's laptime, as it's being compared with the shorter track on the ST. Nice site by the way.

Adam 21/11/08, 23:00:55
only 2800LBS that is 200LBS lighter than a ford focus ST.The VW golf GTI could evan give a subaru WRX 08 a run for it's money.The VW golf GTI could probably corner alot faster than the WRX but on the striaght's I dont think the VW golf GTI could do all that great.But they should use VW golf GTI's for rally race's Like the WRX and the focus.

venom 20/12/08, 04:50:17
love this car, my sister just got one, its brilliant. to her its a rocketship and its incredibly comfortable, in fact when my dad worked for mercedes he brought home an s klasse once and because of all the plastic in the air id say the vw was more even more luxurious, thats not bad considering all the technology in the merc!
