Slicker Citi

 
 
This is the description of the media involved in the media container above.
Volkswagen South Africa has brought out a new CitiGolf model that pays homage to the popular GTS warm hatch of the 1980’s.Dubbed the Citi GTS, this model is distinguished from its peers by lowered sport suspension, 15-inch alloy wheels with a gunmetal grey finish, retro-inspired GTS side decals, and red surrounds on the grille and double headlamps.

In keeping with its limited-edition status, the Citi GTS is available in six exterior colours, namely, Candy White, Tornado Red, Sunset Red, Reflex Silver, Summer Blue, and the questionably-monikered Tossa Blue. br>
The interior features sports seats up front, as well as black and silver trim finishes on the facia.

The Citi GTS is powered by Volkswagen’s proven 1,4-litre fuel-injected petrol engine, which develops 62 kW.

As with other models in the CitiGolf line up, the GTS comes with a 3-year/120 000 km warranty as standard. Volkswagen’s AutoMotion maintenance and service plans can be specified at an additional cost.

Price: VW Citi GTS R102 400.

Comments

the GTS is very disapointing, i love vw citi so much, just sometimes it gets on my nerves how they just do it wrong. the GTS could`ve gotten the 1.8 or 1.6l engine, GTS means fast but yet humble, bad choice of engine but good choice of work.
