South Africa's favourite GTI

[@kemsleygobey2357]

So let me give you'll some information about the engines,the SA spec AW gti use the EA888.3B Miller cycle with same DQ250 6 speed gearbox found on golf 7/7.5gti. UK have the AW gti with the lastest EA888.4 (Gen4) engine with new Dq381 7 speed which they use in UK Golf 8 GTI/R. Our SA spec Mk8 gti use the same EA888.3 (Gen3) from the Mk7/7.5gti but with better fueling and new DQ381 gearbox. All MK8 R use the lastest EA888.4 engine even SA spec.

But for the same amount of money it will be cheaper to run a polo gti since it will be still under warranty and a service plan which can be extended. For R500k you get a 2019 golf gti and a 2023 for a polo gti, which is a big difference.
