That's pretty much how I felt after driving both. People think you're crazy: "how can you go for the GTI  over the R" I've had that said to me and they look at  you stupid when you explain - all they see is the 300bhp and 4wd and instantly it must be better.

They let me out in a Clubsport after and I was considering some serious debt, that's the one you want! I could've got one and I wish I had but it was more than I wanted to spend on a car, not only that but I've to run the thing and I do nearly 20,000 miles a year.

Don't be tight like me and buy a Clubsport :D

Yeah I put some PS4's on my current car not so long ago so a bit annoyed to see them go but I fully intend on sticking some on when the time comes.
