You can also still get the Subaru Legacy and Outback with a manual unlike us Americans.

If I come up there and buy one, will you throw in healthcare? And I might need to hide out for a couple more years until we can put sane people in office ....

I’ll throw in the heathcare if you pay the same taxes that everyone else has to pay up here.

Still 70% of VW sales here. Dieselgate? What dieselgate?

They are selling the “new” fixed diesels.

Current owner, don’t get one, it’s massively overrated. It’s not that quick then when it’s cold enough that it is it doesn’t hook up. It doesn’t have enough space. The most fatal sin of all though is the complete lack of any soul or character. It is completely and utterly soulless.

Huh, and I thought all of the Canadian spec TDI’s were shipped to Chile. I know it because they come with heated seats as standard and the orange sidemarkers, also sold at really cheap prices:

If I was in the market for a three door Golf, I’d get a Scirocco.

A Scirocco R 2.0TSi.

Yes, but why would anyone buy one? The MK7 Golf looks better as a 5-door anyway. Also having back doors makes the car more practical. Passengers can get in/out easier. You don’t have to be a contortionist to get things from behind the front seats.

Why buy a hatchback only to make it less useful? I had an 02 SVT Focus for 10 years. They only sold them as a 3-door in 02. I like my 5-door GTI so much more.

There are people out there who think three doors look better. I don’t get it, but they exist.

Friend of mine drives a Scirocco, wouldn’t mind a 3-door GTI, but wouldn’t be seen dead in a 5-door.
