That has nicer Alloys then the GTi.
The engine in that SHOULD of been put in the 6 GTi, rather then the Asthmatic K03
Everything about that is WIN WIN, except the price.
If they were same price R and GTi, i know which one alot more people would choose.
Asking price gets people on the defensive as to which is better.
Theres always next week lottery to pin my hopes 
Hmm, not so sure on that one.
Quite happy with the quick spooling K03 myself. It maps to 260+bhp on stage 1, and is economical and refined without having the silly 3-4 year cambelt change ££££ hanging over you.
As for 'if they were the same price', well of course you'd go for the xenon equipped 4wd R!!!
Styling wise, I don't think there's much in it, neither cars are particularly pretty but both look purposeful and sporty without being OTT.
I'm happy with my hairdryer K03 equipped £21k GTI thanks.
Mind you if my 6 numbers did pop up next week........
