*whispers* I think you should just wait for the RS3 
No on a serious note. It's not worth changing to a GTD. It's changing just for the sake of it. I'm sure it's a great car but so is the GTI. If you want to get out the car so badly then I'd just wait for some more used examples to come on the market and choose sonething a bit different.
I'll whisper back *buggered if I could afford one anyway!*
It's not that I hate the GTI, conversely I love it!
It was more that particular deal in post 1 that opened my eyes to a potentially good deal with a similarly performing car and a slightly different experience over the short term.
Plus I must confess I didn't expect the thread to drag on for page after page and I'll admit that, as is so often the case with me, I posted up the thread being a bit tongue in cheek as it had been dull as hell on here for a few weeks.
The deal from post 1 just ain't going to happen.
And to 2014GTI: yes the boot is big enough in the Golf if you (as above, sound advice) buy sensibly. And remember the parcel shelf comes out and you can easily store a pram on its side freeing up more space for bags.
The 335d is pretty awesome though! Just remember it's no GTI
