Blimey... Sorry, it just made me chuckle. I didn't mean it maliciously.


....No problem - The written word is sometimes easily misunderstood.  :drinking:

I did think about swapping the R32 in for the R20 until i saw the released prices!! I'd want V6 turbo for that money...

Purchase price aside though, I bet the R20 is cheaper to run day-to-day. And, as has been already mentioned, for what you get for the money, I think it's a good car, relatively speaking - very versatile. Very much an RS6/RS4 Avant for a guys/couples without kids or a dog who still wants to go fast and have fun but needs usable boot space - much like myself.

The next gen. S3 is going to have to be pretty nuts and bl**dy expensive to trump it too!
Only 250.1bhp - but with that noise, who cares?

Mile-muncher ordered: MkVI 1.6 TDi BlueMotion Match DSG with leather, winter pack, luxury pack, fogs, climate control, Dynaudio pack, RCD510 with DAB & MDI, flat tyre indicator

....Exactly! You have just perfectly described why the Golf is such a good allrounder  :happy2:
