The Golf GT Sport features a darkened grille section -with the "GT Sport" badge- intersected by a set of horizontal fins to forge a visual link with the other sporting models in the range – the potent GTI and R32 variants.
Framing the new nose is a pair of darkened headlights which visually separate the lenses into four, individual units. They sit above a set of fog lights mounted in the front air dams. In profile the new GT Sport is distinguished by subtle tints to the rear windows and a set of 17-inch multi-spoke ‘ClassiXs’ alloy wheels fitted with 225/45 R17 tyres.
