still prefer the look of mk6 . mk7 is abit square-ish for me.

the front now looks like jetta... the bonnet, headlight and bumper profile and shape looks very similar.

me too prefer the old golf look, rounder and sportier look

Mk7 i have no idea. But i have a mk6 gti at home. Need to top up oil every 5000km or whenever the engine oil lights lights up.

Normally the ones need to top up are the performance version like gti or golf r. The normal mk7 tsi, i dont think u need to top up.
*
it depend how you drive. if you tend to rev and drive the car hard... gti or tsi will burn and eat up some of the oil hence need top up.
but if you drive averagely.. none needed. i know some gti who dont drive heavy footed do not need any top up too. so it depends on you and its pretty normal for turbo charged car regardless of brand

guys, is it true that a car that manufactured in 2012 but first registered in 2013 still considered as 2013 car ? it still holds its RV same as 'year made2013/year registered 2013' right ?

can we do leather wrapping outside ourselves and do not affect warranty ? SA quoted 3200 for jetta.
*
2012 manufactured car will be registered as 2012..no cheating on that... RV is based on year of manufactured
i think most are confuse especially with year end car... people usually refers to the car model year. EG: a 2013 model can be manufactured in 2012.

most manufacturer be it car or any other product starts production for next year model at end of the year at the factory so that they make it into the showroom b4 the new year start.

for this case, alot of the last year dec VW cars are actually 2013 model with minor improvement to the specs.
example 2013 jetta model have 3 aircon dial vs the 2012 model only 2 dial. but both can be manufactured in year 2012
