Slightly off topic but you mentioned tax price on a 4 motion I happened to see a mk5 R32 parked up yesterday and the tax on that thing was £445

Think thats a pretty steap tax price just for a R32 fair enough if its a Porsche or some other high performance car..

all to do with it being 4wd ,the feckers   ,went up first in 2001 and then even more in 2005 iirc
will be having a look int a map me thinks lol

Any mk5 R32 registered between 18/11/05 - 23/03/06 is £270 for 12 months. Any Mk5 r32's registered after 23/03/06 are £475 for 12 months tax.

All mk4 R32 / 4 motions are £270 (2012) / £290 (2013)

Never driven a 4 motion but on paper they seem a big lump of a car for 200bhp. If i was to own one i would stick a set of coilovers on and upgrade the anti roll bars to stiffen it up a little maybe.
