....I didn't know I was vulgar. That red RS3 in the pics is exactly how I would spec mine except for the interior.

....Yes I know you did  :smiley:. A car usually reflects the taste of its owner. But of course, each to their own.  :happy2:

....Hurdy costed the one I would have had and IIRC it came to around £50k.

Whether it's a hatchback or Avant or whatever, what difference does it make? - It's a performance car which either ticks your boxes or it doesn't. It ticks most of my boxes but I can't currently afford one and I love my GTI far too much to part with it anyway.

Thought it said 68,000 Euros?  :confused: Either way, it's still bloody bonkers money for what is in essence a hatchback on 6-7 year old platform..

Don't get me wrong, I think it's a lovely motor and the engine is one of the best out there at the min.  :drool: If I had my way I would have a TTRS on my drive right now, so i'm far from a hater.. Just think that sort of money could be spent a lot better elsewhere, but like Robin said, ETTO and @ around £40-45k it's a lot more of a tempting option..
