Ahh, I thought the Leon had a diff.
My only point was you've got to compare apples with apples - the only way you're ever going to compare the two is if the ED30 came standard with a diff and it had exactly the same power to weight ratio and torque as the RS. Then you take off your badge head and just see which is best.
Oh, and you forgot £1500 for the Recaros, then xenons.. etc etc - exact same spec, I bet they'd be similar money at least.
It makes for good reading, it's interesting, it's a laugh, but it's as uttery worthless as the RS v R26R comparison too.
