Me and Romany went and test drove the R today... AMAZING!
Lovely looking car, much prefer the looks of exterior and especially interior to the S3. Was great fun to drive and traction felt amazing, picked up speed pretty well off the line too. I was hoping it would rain to see how impressive it is in the wet but it didn't rain. It would be the R for me, more exclusive, about twice as many Ed30's than R's on the road isn't it? Even a basic spec R comes with quite a few bits as standard so thats good.
If the one today had more doors, DSG box and blue rather than silver I might have been tempted.
I was quite impressed by the subtle mud guard thingys too, thought they were a nice touch
