Oh dear... why did you compare it to a 2.0T mk5 with a k03, thats just a mk4 in a fancy dress...... what you comparing a mk5 astra vxr (235bhp?) to a mk5 golf? I'm comparing the later 2.0T TSI/TFSI engines, the one on the Cupra R and S3 that push 260bhp stock, and the Cupra R is £19k same as the VXR I believe with more bang for the buck by a mile.
