MK7 R or Audi S3 and GTI or Leon Cupra 280?

I act like an accountant on here sometimes. 

You should definitely be in the finance business MH if you're not already 

Maybe I will. Getting made redundant next year, currently in Quality Assurance and HSE.

No construction HSE?

GrahamFR: I've done a  stint in construction (structural steelwork fabrication as a summer job for 4 years to pay my way through Uni), so i'm more than familiar with the environment, plant and tools but I wasn't into HSE back then. Most of my HSE experience is in chemicals and radiological protection.

ahh i see, ill let you off then, im a qs for a main contractor and id like to know why you keep hassling us about using mewps when a perfectly good set of ladders could do the trick

Don't forget to lock the wheels on your MEWP. Seen a few of them start to roll.

I blame unpredictable ground conditions

Considered all of these models to change into from my 6GTI, in the end the Golf 7R ticked all the box's

Though worth noting my second choice was the 7GTI PP     I guess the golf is best

Yesterday I saw 3 Rs within 5 mins and this morning at 6am I saw a lorry delivering 2 brand spanking new Gtis and 2 Rs!
My mk6 is becoming a rare sight!

I think that more 7R's on the road will actually increase the desire/demand for one from other buyers not just experienced hot hatch owners. Might actually keep residuals buoyant in the next few years despite the lease deals.

I agree, well cared for examples will be much in demand.
So long as VW keep the quality up on them and limit the supply (the 6 month lead times show that's the case) they will hold their value well.
