Just had a look Matt, and enjoyed the exuberance, its a little how feel when driving the TCR, but being British, mine is more the carrying of a permanent knowing smile appreciation,

As someone stated, you preaching to the converted here in UK, personally had mine 14 months now, and with a recent history of back to back Audi Quattro, a MK 7 GTD and then an R, the TCR is very much the best of the bunch, agreeing that its the best the GTI has looked in the grey and black complements, and in terms of fun, its all the pace of the R with GTI agility and engagement.
Never kept a car beyond 3 years but its likely this is going to be the exception as even thinking of letting go brings that sinking feeling when lose something love.
