The current one has been around since 2008 and must be due for a major update I would have thought. What would you like to see in a Mk4?
I think they could improve the exterior styling, add folding mirrors, put a door in the undertray to make oil changes easier, use a standard metal screw-on oil filter, and add a 6th gear.
What would you want to see that would make you buy one?

I agree with 6th gear, i swap between mine and mrs kia and tis a lil reminder at times i dont have one.
Sort out the door pockets as no proper use, thou i do like the lil one near edge of door due to using it for shopping bags to reuse.
Same with the glove box as it is a lil bit tiny.
I dont like the fairy lights on the new faced lift as looks like they just cut the bumper jsut to stick them in as a after thought, so maybe nicer intergration.
Able to use the radio with just one turn of the key instead of having to have the engine on, same turning off as i like to finish a song with out having to keep the engine on.
Other mods come to mind, but i think that more personal with hobbies etc.

A tad longer - maybe a long wheel base option on the multispace? (like the van)

Slightly longer wheelbase (10 inches would do) and the 2.0 litre BlueHDi 150/180 as an engine option

Had to google Jesus Handles! :lol:
Aye - the esp traction control option isn't a patch on a proper Haldex system. I've had some slippage in mud that my Octavia 4x4 sails through.

as mentioned before .. sort out the storage in the doors and glove box, (aptly named as you can only really can fit a pair of gloves in there) sort out the drivers legroom and geometry for pulling to the left
