Yours looks amazing love the mods and thread so far. Did u notice much difference going from the eddy to the R except for AWD essentially it’s the same shell as the MK5 so guess my biggest question is did it feel like a new/different car as standard or just a facelift of the eddy?
Will be watching this one love what Uve done so far and that colour

Thanks.
In regards to going from the Eddy to the R.........Obviously everything looks different and newer. The dash, display and controls ect feel newer and look more up to date. When I got mine it did feel newer and like a different car to drive but my Eddy had done about 70k and the R only had 6k on the clock so basically a new car.
My main reason for upgrading was the AWD, Very noticable when standard. Makes the car feel so much more capable and more in control. I wanted to go stage 2+ in the eddy but didnt think youd be able to get the most out of it due to being FWD. I could be wrong as Ive never been in one thats been mapped to 2 +. However even at 2+ in the R it feels managable and controlable even if road conditions aren't great. Also I always liked the look of the 6Rs.
Saying that my eddy was standard apart from H&R springs so i guess if you added the same mods as mine has and then drove them both there probably wouldnt be much in it apart from the AWD.
Form me it was definitly the right choice.
If ai were you id go take one for a drive and see what you think and whether you feel its worth the extra £££££.
Hope that helps.

Yeah that’s great thanks pal ! Best get test driving. I’m tempted by DSG but my eddy is manual not sure I would miss the feel of gear changes especially on a nice country road
