I've read a few reviews saying the S1 suffers a bit of torque steer which surprised me.
Mind you a bit of driving fun usually comes at the expense of an ultimately polished performer.
The S1 is a bit pricey but looking at some ex-demos with sensible spec some aren't too bad. And to me the manual is a blessing, I just drive too many different vehicles during the week to get used to DSG properly in a car I seldom use.
No, my GTI will most likely stay with me for a good while yet.
