Do you find yourself reaching for the clutch pedal in the R32?

Also, where are the front fogs on the R32?

Stunning pair of cars in your driveway. I suppose your wife is a 6'2 model too? I'm the jealous type! :wink:

 :signLOL: I'm not quite old enough for a wife yet

Yeah does feel weird jumping in and out of the two after driving one for a while

The MK5 R32 didn't come with front fogs. Kind of wish they did. I actually like the yellowish tint the GTI's fogs give off

The GTI does feel faster than the 32 but that's probably because I'm not used to having a turbo.

I do think it would be very close as a rolling start but from a stand still the 32 would kill it.

Interesting. Are fogs not standard on any R32's or is yours a freaky one?

No, fogs didnt come with any R32 MK5.
People have retro fitted MK6 golf and new scirocco LEDs to the lower grills and they do look nice
