- Stop modifying.
:confused:

For me, erm, start modifying! Hoping to have moved soon so insurance should come down to a point where I can afford to modify.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

If I hadn't moved back to Brum and have to pay £2500/yr (the cheapest and was with directline!), I could have gone with adrian flux for £800 and then made a visit to JKM.

I'm not rich enough to have money coming out of my arse.


Yet.  :P

Fit the S3 brakes and stop modding.

Find another classic to restore, after my Fiat 500 project last year.

Untill the Quality of the Golf R is known, then its difficult to draw a conclusion imo. Still expensive for just a "golf"

Fix my still broken car so I can get shot of it and actually get a GTI at long last. Every time I get close to sorting it all out, something else comes along and pushes the GTI just out of reach. I've been a member here getting on for a year now and still no Golf... I feel like a fraud!
Only 250.1bhp - but with that noise, who cares?

Mile-muncher ordered: MkVI 1.6 TDi BlueMotion Match DSG with leather, winter pack, luxury pack, fogs, climate control, Dynaudio pack, RCD510 with DAB & MDI, flat tyre indicator

Untill its been tested and making an asumption the S3 is better without trying the other car , maybe abit premature :confused:

the s3 is better built than an r32/ed30 imo. Cant really see the vw being better built as Audi is meant to be more prestigeous.
Many BMW'S and one bog standard MK5 3dr Golf GTI.

The interia of the Mk6 is better then the 5. The quality maybe better in the R mk6.

We shall see.
