Watch Misha's video first : • Why I would NEVER buy ...
See our Up! GTI exclusive UK first drive video here : • UP GTI TESTED HARD IN ...
THANKS TO CHELTENHAM VW FOR THE LOAN OF THE CAR AND EXECUTIVE AVIATION SERVICES FOR THE LOCATION
Firstly I've got a lot of respect for Misha and Apex so don't mistake this for hate.
When I first saw Misha's video I thought it made some good points. However, having now driven the Up! GTI and knowing more about how it differs from the TSI, I felt he had been unduly harsh on the Up! GTI especially as he had never seen one let alone driven one.
The constant references to how it wont perform well on track are true but not how people who buy this car will use it - GTI does not mean track car. It means a shopping car which can be a bit of fun on a good road as well.
So I hope you see this video as fair in its support for the Up! GTI which is a seriously fun ROAD car.
If you want to drive an Up! on track, go to Nuerburg and rent Misha's 'Sub-7 Up!' which is available via Apex
