Prices on the new model seem to have rocketed in the past couple of years. At the time of the scrappage scheme the entry level 1.4 Eos could be had new for £19k, and the higher spec not much more than £25k max. Now they seem to have added 50% to the price.
The Golf looks nice, and I don't much like the new shape Eos. But as the Audi A3 never sold in great numbers, I thought VW would continue their support of the Eos. But bringing back the Golf is a good move for them, hardtop cabroilets aren't the most popular of cars now.
Enjoy your Golf, hope you enjoy it as much as the Eos.
