Volkswagen has something pretty special planned for the Worthersee show a party for all things VW, modified, or both which it plans to reveal tomorrow. Beating their employer to it, though, are a bunch of Volkswagen"s apprentices. They"ve concocted the two cars you see here, and there"s every chance they"ll attract more attention than the Golf GTI TCR that VW itself has made. Oops. First up is the slightly outrageous-sounding 405bhp Golf GTI Next Level. That power comes from the company"s usual 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo engine suggesting it"s very unstressed in the 306bhp Golf R and given this car still has a GTI badge, it"s presumably all being put through the front wheels. Yikes. A seven-speed DSG paddle shifter is fitted.
