Test drove a Golf GTi DSG with performance pack
This afternoon as I was thinking of getting a petrol hatchback when I replace my F31 330D with PPK at the end of the year.
What a disappointment. I was expecting it to be fun to drive with great handling, given what everyone writes about it. 'Tinny' best describes it. A very ordinary experience indeed - no drama to the car at all, unless you count the farty exhaust note on the downshift, which gets tedious after a while.
Will have a go in an M140i at some point, which isn't that much more expensive than the Golf with my 'must haves' added (leather, audio upgrade and adaptive dampers) when you factor in the BMW discounts
