I'd put money on the R being nearer the £40k mark. Not that i'd pay that for one.
Just can't see VW shifting any at that price and the mk6 R struggled enough.
VW recently knocked £5k off the list price of the R cabrio as it was stupidly priced, probably with massive discounts off the lowered retail price too.
I reckon the vanilla mk7 R will come in around £30k give or take as it goes head to head with the M135i and S3 etc.
