Aye, especially when you consider that the 125 Coupe is about £5k more than the Scirocco. Had a look at one and was semi-tempted but they're too expensive for what they are IMO. That and as Sabine says there's no real debate as to which is the better looking car! Might make a good second hand buy in a few years though. Especially the 135 :D

If I was gonna try and stretch to 125 coupe money I think I'd rather have an Audi S3 or a Focus RS to be honest.

Good spot alex. Is it just me or does the ABT front bumper actually look good with the air dam surround in silver?

Best turn in of any VW.... just imagine it with lighter wheels!
