Now I want to go back to driving dynamics which I remember from my mark 2 GTI a very long time ago.
IMO you won't get that in a modern car. Too much weight and electronic assistance.

I have just been told there is a 170 gtd in the show room ready to sell, but i have a Mk6 GTi on order build week 9 . Not sure which to buy now??

What are the pro's & cons of these 2 cars? I have driven a 140 jetta the new one and was impressed with the engine??  :undecided:

I currently have an ED30 58 plate ???

I'm wondering why you would be thinking of buying a GTI or GTD if you know nothing about them ? Mind you, if you did know then you wouldnt ask such a stupid question.

I know nothing about iPhones and blackberry's so asked the opinion of those that do.  Yes, I could have gone to the shop and played with them but as I'm not technical all that would have done is tell me what they look like and how they feel.  If the OP is equally untechnical with cars as I am phones, what's wrong with him asking for opinions? 

This site is getting more and more elitest and snooty.

It's fine. It's not noticably quiet or loud. It just trundles along nicely. There may be a slight increase in noise due to the 19 inch tyres but it is not a factor at all. I have the Dynaudio pumping most of the time anyway.

I am just a manual, I considered DSG but didn't go for it in the end.

There is actually quite a nice note while under acceleration and my mates were very impressed. They thought it sounded quite like a petrol while inside the car.
