Must say that anni does look very  :cool: :cool: :cool:

Equally the R32 does sound and go  :cool: :cool: :cool:

Remap that anni to 210 and she will be just as quick as a MK5. Ok, she will still have the awful handling of the MK4, but nothing some anti roll bars and a bit of tinkering wouldnt be able to help with.

But then remap the mk5 and it wont be as quick! I vote R32, purely for the noise  :evil:

For about the same price you could get a slightly modded R32 that would blow the Anni away and still handle :wink: I vote R32 too!!! :grin:

None as of yet, thats another thing that will play a big part in the choice on my next car (if I do get rid of it), cant see it being any good for my insurance!!

My Dad wants me to keep the ED30, all my mates do and I do but I have my doubts...think im best waiting to see what happens with a new job and my license over the next few months.

The R32 does look very tempting though I must admit. Keep it for a few years until im in a fairly decent job and the TWIN TURBO time haha.

My car is a July 2008 (08) with 8.5k miles on the clock whoever said they didnt know...

If worried about cost an R32 isnt the most sensible thing you could buy . . . .

Tax is bases on emissions so it shouldnt matter if its fwd or 4wd. As long as its got the same engine, it will have the same tax.

Oh...got told it would be more as its heavier making it produce more emissions.

Well yeah, if produces more emmisions then there will be higher tax, as mentioned above tax is based on emmisions. Do a google search and find out what emmisions each one produces and that will give you an idea.
