Dont listen to this.

GTI is the only choice. Have you even looked at an R32? I mean seen one with your own eyes? They are pig ugly  :lipsrsealed:
The day you see me in a diesel is the day there is no more petrol left :D

GTI every day - R32's are too slow and cost a fortune to make em go fast and they are too fat.

I'd go for an ED30 and map the life out of it  :wink:

But you did not.
You went for a diesel.

Actions speak louder than words.
:grin: :laugh:
Not low enough mk5
Not on the road enough mk3

In MK4 form your right, but I got to agree with Nick in terms of the MK5. The front is basically a Jetta   :sick: :sick:

yeah there isnt anythign that makes the MkV R32 stand out and is very subtle looking but still goes like Stink!

Ill post a video up later from an R32 meet i went too  :evil: :evil:

but having lived with one for a year If you can afford to run it and maintain it do it, I took the risk and yeah only had it for a year but what a year  :cool:

and test drive both and then make your mind up
