Out of interest..  What is different suspension wise on the R32 compared to the GTI?  Very seriously considering a minter MK4 R32 instead of the Megane  :huh:  Really not that struck with the look of the MK5.

stiffer springs (might be hearsay), uprated ARB's and obviously a different setup entirely on the rear being 4wd.


Better steering feel, & a quicker rack!  ;)

I do love a nice rack  :smug:

I think my next car will be a Mk5 R32. I don't do many miles a year so the fuel side of things isn't an issue. The only thing that slightly puts me off is the tax band they want to put it in and for the same money or maybe a bit less now a Edition 30 is very tempting as it remappes to 270ish bhp.

I just think the R32 has more soul that the GTi due to that engine sound.

One thing I have found though is the Mk4 is a lot more to insure than a Mk5.

I say go for it if your in the market!!  :wink:
