Now thats the look I'd go for... DSG too - just off to check the bank balance

  40k WTF

If I had the money at this moment in time it would be mine!! As it happens I don't but as soon as I do I will have one!  

Couldn't agree more. I dont think it's over priced - the entire 2010 UK allocation has sold out, so clearly I'm not alone in thinking that either. The price has certainly made it a marmite car though. I love it.

Bringing the thread back on topic - 182_blue, what was the engine/exhaust note like?

slightly more rorty than the edition 30, that could just be newness ?

I think the Golf R being pricey is a good thing... makes owning one a special feeling knowing your part of a rare breed..

It is priced at £37k+ for a reason... otherwise everyone would be buying one....

37k and Id rather buy a TTRS.

Plus the mk7 golf has already been spied testing, its like 2 years off.

[AndyS R32]

It's a bloody golf at the end of the day..
Some people have more money than sense,
Look at the competition and tell me VW have got the pricing right?(Even other VAG cars)
Just not special enough for that sort of money...imo

Your missing the point Mat, some people actually want to discuss the car but after 3 posts the same people just turn the thread into a price thing, so no one actually gets to talk about the actual lump of metal.
