My mates RS looks huge next to the Cupra (try to find some pics).

Nice car but cheaper and better ways of getting 300hp+.

So overpriced IMO. 2p.

There is a guy with a blue one around my way, seriously modded, slammed, anthracite wheels, huge intercooler and massive exhausts! It does look ok but the guy who drives it looks like a respectable middle aged man, he looks like a complete tit in it  :confused:

....*cough!* I've always thought of myself as respectable and I'm at least middle aged.

Probably best not to judge a book by its cover.  :wink:

So overpriced IMO. 2p.

What £25K is not alot compared to seeing golf GTD's at £27k(fully spec'ed but still) and a Golf R at £37k thats overpriced :rolleye:

I could probably spend a 1/3 of that £25k though and buy a cheap ST and build an RS eater but I just got fed up of my ST with the petrol going in every few days and the driving position was very poor :surprised: The seat was far too high.

Not judging at all Robin but personally I would feel too old to be driving an RS and im only just 22! Far too shouty for me! I love the S3/GTI's because they are exteremly subtle which is what its all about for me!  :happy2:

.... :grin: I feel too old to drive an RS too! I hope no-one saw me driving that ferry-boat van white one recently.

I see quite a high number of people of around my age driving Mk5 GTI's - It always surprises me.

I was down at the 4x4 garage last week and in comes this old dear, well into her 80's... stooped over asking for a fuse for her alarm on her car, the lads sorted her with one and she toddles off outside

climbs back in her Golf VR6 and leaves at pace!  :congrats:

according to the lads she was a previous world champion driver  :notworthy:
