Whilst I try to maintain a neutral point of view, stating that I have not owned both cars so am not liable to comment, I see you have no such qualms Egbutt. Do I detect an ever so slightly envious tone as you 'just' have a standard GTI?
Rather than trying to put down the Ed30 all the time surely we should be agreeing that both the GTI and the Ed30 are great cars.
Before deciding on the Ed30 I test drove both the standard GTI and R32 (too heavy nose and the weight penalty of the 4-wheel drive meant that if anything it was slower than the Ed30 - probably start another debate here!!)
but preferred the Ed30 due to its exclusivity and added performance.
Whilst I'm on my high chair, I'm not even going to comment about the person who claimed all Ed30s are driven by ex-Scooby drivers and are thrashed to within an inch of their life. To say I take offense to that is somewhat of an understatement.........
