Volkswagen Up GTI
£13,750
WE SAY: VW’S ENTRY-LEVEL GTI HAS LANDED. AND IT’S TEMPTINGLY PRICED
Is this the long-awaited production version of the Up GTI?
It is indeed, all 113bhp of it. More importantly, we now know prices too, and they start at just £13,750 (or £400 more if you want the kids to have their own doors).
Ooh, that sounds a tempting price.
That’s because it is. An Abarth 500 starts at £15,510, a base Mini Cooper is £17,340, even a 110bhp Renault Twingo GT is £14,250. And it’s not like the Up is poorly equipped, either. Six-speaker stereo, USB, aircon, Bluetooth, heated seats, DAB – it’s all standard. The Up is available to order now, first customers will have theirs by the end of February.
Will they be…
