Volkswagen has revised its Golf line-up, replacing the existing Sport and GT trim levels with one range-topping model – the GT Sport.

Available in three and five-door hatchback guises, there is a choice of two engines – the 1.4 TSI petrol in 140 or 170bhp forms, and the 2.0 TDI diesel with the same power outputs. Prices start at £17,422.
