I think it looks MILES better than the new Astra... the Astra looks so first-year-design-student-looking-for-direction, whereas this car... well it can only be a Golf. Park this next to a Golf 2 and you'll know they are related. Park the new Astra next to a 1987 Astra and you'd never know they are brothers...
I like the clean solid look, the absence of creaselines and the fussiness that pervades the Astra's design... It will sell well I guess and going by the A3's chassis (that this car shares) it should be good to drive as well vs the current floaty version (we have a V5 Golf at the moment). Again it looks far more upmarket than the Focus/Astra/Megane in my opinion...
No pictures of the dash yet, but I guess it will look exactly like that of the Touran...
I'd like the same version as the A3 then: 2,0 TDI with the DSG automatic gearbox... but I'd prefer the allroad A3 I think...
(And why do they say the Audi A3 is based on this Golf chassis if (as with the last A3) the Audi was launched first?!)
