Understand where you are coming from a pug fan my self luvd the gti 306 and 106 not to mention 205 "the original hot hatch" but unfortuanatly went jap a few years ago " im 33 by the way""
The jap market on cars is understated on quality and trust me i know over the last cars i have had ...Nothing is near to a jap build especially the engines...These are bullit proof ...Unless importing parts are ready to go and a good dealer will look after you ...
"now sorry for this one"
Did recently look into buying the new pug 207 gti the 1.6 turbo model ...Nice drive engine good although nicked from the mini cooper with high presure turbo ,torque on bottom end and easy to drive But previous test drove a type s and no comparison ...The feal of the jap cars is excellent and rugged on drive
Eventually purchased the type r this i will receive on wednesday ...And only done 1 test drive but christ cant wait .....
Dont follow your love of a company as you know them or a car model ...Once you try different you will always go to the men who know how to engineer mind captivaiting rides ...
All the best D
