Hello & welcome!
Hope you enjoy the car - some experience of Type R's as my sis / hubby have one. Never driven it, but it's quite fun as a passenger! Just joined here myself as I'm into my 2nd week of ED30 ownership.
So far I'm finding it to be a great car - very refined & quick, even coming from a very modified mkiv golf 1.8t with S3/TT turbo.
Look forward to some pics!
Dave
