Not where I live, and if I'm behind them, most people move out of the way - although it doesn't have quite same 'outside lane clearing ability' as the RS4 did.

Only been 'pushed' a couple of times since I had it - once was a std mk5 gti (mine's debadged and he obviously wasn't aware of the ed30 rear bumper differences). The other was an early Integra Type R, lets just say he is probably still wondering if there's something wrong with his car.

This is suprising, i suppose youve just had some 'bad' luck.

I would expect it in a ferrari or lambo or something with a v8+, but on a golf? Yes its got a gti badge but its still a 4 pot 2.0, albeit the coolest  :cool:

i usually persuade them to move out the way  :evil:
but when behind it p!sses me off too  :angry: got my forum sticker on the rear window and i just assume that they must be short sighted and want a close up view of my sticker  :evil: a swift tap of the centre pedal sorts it  :laugh:

Same here. I used to get it now and again in the MK4, but in the MK5 I hardly get it.

Yup all the time including when in the left lane pootling with little n dog in the back with clear dog guard/nipper chair etc. Let em get on with, but on my own on the twisties.  :rolleyes:
