    VW have reveiled a new special edition Scirocco, the GTS. Apparently it's to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the original. I've not been a big fan of the current Scirocco, but I do think this looks pretty good. Shame it's not based on the R version though.

    Still looks like it was designed by 3 different teams who weren't allowed communicate!

    It reminds me of one of those cartoon cars.

    VW must be consulting the Felt Spec contingent now. Pity they forgot to paint the rest of the roof black. And park it in a pond...

    The interior appears to have a full-width plank of polished wood across the dash.

    Sporty!

    I think the wood is in the Beetle "Fender" edition

    Which, in fairness, is a HUGE improvement on the previous Beetle. (the exterior - that fender interior is awful) I like it - it looks kinda hot-rod-ish, proper retro influences rather than being a wanky "Golf-crossed with a Mazda 121 bubble car", like the previous version. (Galway TT's was nice in fariness but was well beyond the boggo silver models that were most popular)

    They should let the guys that designed this beetle and the new Polo design more stuff
