Hi everyone,
New member from New Zealand here!
I ordered 125i Msport a month ago, so naturally you look for reviews etc.
Found a review from
WHATCAR
What do you guys think of the review? Especially the part he compares 125i to Golf GTI;
"The price and power of the 125i might suggest that it's a rival for genuine hot hatches such as the VW Golf GTI, but it's not quite that sharp. Instead, if you treat it more like a high-speed grand tourer on a smaller scale – go fast, rather than flat-out – you'll be playing it to its strengths."
Well, I have had Mk6 GTI for a year and when I test drove 125i Msport I thought exactly the opposite.
125i felt much better around corners, had incredibly smooth power delivery for a turbo and generally was much more fun.
Was it just me being hyper excited to test drive something new and different?
At least, one new zealand review seems to agree with me.
