Off topic but on topic, I saw a brand spanking GTI today and, I must say, it looked very 'sanitized'. It would probably go like a scalded cat, but it looked like a right fat bastard.

Original Golf GTI from the seventies was about 800 KG.

The 2021  'fat bastard' variety is close to twice that.

Or about the same as my XE, and that's got the driven wheels at the correct end, not the one suitable only for shopping and school runs.
