Volkswagen Driver – October 2018

In the October issue of Volkswagen Driver we have news of the Touareg 3.0 V6 TDI, T-Roc 1.6 TDI, new VW motorcaravans and the new Polo R5 rally car. We also have a full 9-page road test of the new Polo GTI+ and look back over the history of the Polo GTI, beginning with the 6N and 6N2 (1998-2001). Features on modified VWs include Tom Elliott’s Mk 7 Golf GTI Clubsport and the amazing AMY Amarok from Carlex Design.

Motorsport reports from WRX and ARX rallycross in Canada and France and an event report on the Mk 2 Golf Owners’ Club meet at Curborough. We also tour the Eibach factory, replace the rear wishbones and carry out an alignment on the Mk 5 GTI Edition 30 and carry out a full detail and G-techniq paint protectant on the Project 7.5R and fit XPEL paint protecting film to the road and track GTI Clubsport S.

Our products & services pages review a wide range from the Quickjack portable car lift and the Ramair Jetstream induction kit for the Polo GTI to Diamondbrite wheel rim protectors and the THINKWARE F800 Pro dashcam.
Global view considers Dieselgate and air pollution issues and we also compare the Polo GTI with the Fiesta ST. Plus: Specialist trade index, and pages of classified ads for cars and parts for sale.

Enjoy!
