Mine is bloody gorgeous, convinced the 7speed is the biggest reason for the seamless acceleration, that and the amazing traction, also the bhp that I'm convinced is above book. It's quiet, comfortable beats my ladies GTI on every single level including fun. Frightening can be fun
If anyone is passing come and try mine, btw it doesn't feel like a tank to me!

Odd...I wasn't impressed at all when I test drove a DSG R a couple of weeks ago.
Unless you nail the pedal to the metal it was as slow as a slow thing but when I tried the GTI performance (manual)...well that was a different kettle of fish altogether.
Perhaps it's just me with automatics....or maybe it's because my current beast (RS Focus) is running 375bhp and the slightest blip on the throttle makes the car surge forward!
