Well ive had both and from 40mph i reckon it would be close.But what about other challanges 0-60 r32 wins exiting corners r32 wins top speed r32 wins round top gear track r32 winsThese are just a few of the top of my head and they are all in dry weather so yo can double that amount by adding wet conditions. So that makes the r32 faster in my bookGive £500 to each of the owners of the R32 and the ED30 and you would see all those (apart from maybe No2!) swap places. In the wet maybe 2-1 to the ED30 and a draw on the track time.

I might be wrong but hurdy is around 4-500bhp (or something high) so he would probably give a turbo r32 a run for its money with power to weight. Hurdy's best 1/4 is 13.151Relatively low powered supercharged 32's are running 13.5's so sounds about right.
SteveI think in terms of a better ride, nicer cabin and of course quieter ride that you've probably done yourself a favour in going for the mk6. As you said there isn't a marked difference in speed from your edition30 so you may not much if anything different.Anyway congrats on your order when are you likely to get the car?
