I'm sure you'll find plenty of sites that aren't car related to keep you busy

....

This R20 is soooo much more exciting than the Mk6 GTI isn't she, guys!?

Loving the looks but would want to dull down the silver trim interior. Not a great fan of '4WD' and wonder about how she feels to drive as I fear she may be as heavy as the Mk5 R32.

Best thing is that my K04 extra bits would fit straight on the R20 for a stage 2+ and the ED30 could be stripped out properly :evilgrin:

I'm definately going to have to test drive them both when I come for change to see how well the Rocco handles the power through fronts and how well the Golf handles the extra weight and just hope it isn't as bland as the S3 is..
Looking forward to them both though, that's for sure..  :laugh:

Roll on next year, I think I have found a replacement to the mk5  :wink:

I agree on the naming though, everyone knows the GTI badge, they should have stuck with GTI-R then at least you can still say you have a 'GTI'

i would surely NOT subject the r-20 seats nor its suspension to that kinda cyclical oscillations. its simply sinful to the max.  :evilgrin:

R-20 on 4WD... no expected handling issues when mod to Stage 2+ ... hehehe  :grin:

I like what I see, definitely looks more aggressive than an S3 (it sounds like the R is just a redressed S3)
It will map VERY easily to 310bhp ish (just as easy as a map to any GTi/ED30)
Just hope that the 4WD does not numb the feeling of the car as it has tended to do in the S3 a little.

Will defi consider when the Pirelli is due for a change

Looking forward to seeing one in the flesh as that is the real test
