I 'get' the R estate thing and I can see the niche it's aimed at.
The R was never a GTI.
I can't see why an R estate won't sell in decent numbers so it should be a success for VW. It has appeal to a certain demograph and will be a pretty handy tool for well heeled mums and people who cdnt get their golf clubs in a Golf hatch.
A GTI estate/variant would be a crime.
I don't even like the idea of a GTD estate, I'd much rather see an R Line 184 TDI estate.
