Is the original still the best? Steve Walker takes a look at the MKVI Golf GTI.

Preview
Before Volkswagen dreamed up the Golf GTI, there was no such thing as a hot hatchback. Now the phrase has entered everyday parlance and virtually any manufacturer that has a hatchback also has a hot one - or a warm one at the very least. It was 1973 when the original GTI was born and since then, through six generations and with the help of its countless imitators, it has brought performance, handling and fun to the masses on an unprecedented scale. The current GTI is the mark six and by rights, it should be the best yet.
