Sorry to disapoint you but I'm not a man, most definetely female.
My previous car was a 2.0 GTI (2000 Model), they are nothing alike, I always found the 2.0 GTI to be gutless, great car around town and comfortable for touring, but not a GTI, should never been given this title, you can't have 2 GTI's in a range.
At the weekend the dealer loaned me their 1.8T (180BHP) GTI, much better car, very impressed with this, handled well and quite rapid.
The R32 is something else, the ride is hard, but its suppose to be, the steering is precise, and it sticks to the road like ............ you get the idea. Exhause noise is fantastic. Averaging about 14-16MPG at the moment, but thats my heavy foot
Just need the snow and ice to clear now so I can give it some around the lanes.
