All I can say is that we're lucky to have the choice! Assuming we can afford the choice that is at over £30K for a bloody Golf and a likely VAT rise imminent.  :cry:

I will give you one reason why the GTI is NOT better than the "R"........

BECAUSE THEY MADE THE "R" BETTER...!!!!

That is the whole point of the VW Engineers...to make an ÜBER Golf...

I do have the GTI emotions myself even stronger now with remapping my GTI but I try to stay with both feet on the ground..... :smiley:.

...oh and if the looks are a bit too plain comparing to the GTI there are loads of ways to give it a bit of extra... :evil:

Ive owned both mk6 GTI and Golf R!

The mk5 GTI chassis was far more supperior and fun with a remap than any mk6 gti!!!!
