Thanks guys appreciate the feedback. I'm torn at min as I do 250 mile a week to work but I have a bike for that. I love the sound of my v5 and can imagine a v6 with full system and remapped etc will be the nuts. Was going to do this to my v5 but decided to get a lower millage golf first as mines done 135k now.

The 1.8T may save me some £ on fuel but like I said iv got a bike for commuting and Iv a decent payed job and have always wanted to tune a golf to some serious power while i can afford to (still renting atm & no baby as yet lol) so that's why I'm unsure what to go for. Would like to drive a 4 motion to feel the 4wd.

Heaps of posts on here about the 4x4 system you do know the rear wheels only engage when you lose traction??? It's not a permenant system so 90% of the time it's a fwd car pal I've only noticed the 4x4 in the snow and it is a good thing
