The Mk6 is Huge

[moe360]

I hope it's not that huge as it won't go in the garage! I have a Mk4. at present and hope
my new Mk.6 (due April) is about the same width.

(My husband has a Merc. E class and it's enormous in my eyes.)

The E class is a longer car then the Golf being a large saloon however I think the front of the golf looks wider and bigger, could be the design that makes me it look like that

IIRC, the Golf VI is about 4.2m long which is actually fairly compact for a car in its class these days. I think the current Focus, Mazda 3, Leon and new Astra are all longer, to name a few off the top of my head.
