I know about your situation Alan! Why do you say its a 5.5 then? Me thinks you wouldnt you say that if you had driven a MK6 or the new GTD?

It was sarcasm with regards to how civilised this thread was, hence my post about sarcasm. I think the way I wrote it has got lost in internet translation.

I don't actually think (well, sort of lol) that its a 5.5

I have to agree its not a MK5.5 at all mate its very differant motor IMO , me personaly I think the 5 is much more solid car and a great motor, and would buy one any day!!

The reason i bought the 6 was simply because I dont keep my cars for more than a year, and I love brand new cars !!

Wow, thats given some food for thought.
I never even considered the ED30, are they hard to come by?
Some one mentioned the R32, they go some around the same money as a MK5 on a 09 plate, but are around 6 miles to the gallon worse off.
The running costs are not the issue, I would just like the car to be there when I got back to it and I think the Golf is not over the top in looks as say the Evo X.
I have 3 months to make my mind up and the GTI is ticking all boxes, are they easy to live with as a daily car, for example, Parking up safely. I know with the RS's you were worried every time you left it. Thanks for all the advice.

if your not bothered about consumption the R32 is the best out there... and the fastest bar the Golf R (which is sily money). It would be my choice for noise alone.
