Just before being replaced by the new Mk. VI model, VW will top the current range with this über-Golf at the Frankfurt Show in September this year. It’s going to be powered by the Passat R36’s 3.0-litre V6 delivering 300 bhp. Exterior will be yet more aggressive than that of the R32 with huge air-intakes at front and a diffuser and mid-mounted pair of thick exhaust pipes at the rear. A Haldex-built all-wheel-drive will be standard.
