Guys thanks for all your feedback......all of you have mixed feelings and some have settled into the DSG from the word go  :wink:
So looks like the only way will be to get her down and test drive both types of boxes, and in both Diesel and Petrol
I like the look of the GTI, with the exhausts pipes on either side, and there is just something about owning a Gti that puts a wee smile on your face. I have always said I will own a Gti later on in life and this is the time...(mid life thing)  :smug:
The motor we have just now is a BMW X1....a totally differant car all together so will be a big change for the wife!!!

Once again guys thanks for your input and will report back with the results of our findings.... :rolleyes:

GTI and GTD have the paddles as standard but if you want it on a GT or SE then it was an optional extra.
