Keyless is only on 5 door cars. It's not available on 3 doors anymore.

Just wondering if anyone knows whether the now standard Keyless, Winter Pack and Discover Nav are also now standard on the R?

I'm looking at possibly upgrading to an R Wagon and thinking which extras I might need to add!

No which is one of the things that put me off it.
They will probably come as standard on the run out model.

Is no keyless a UK thing only?

All pictures I have seen of the Clubsport (even latter Portugal Press Day ones) show Keyless (well at least a start button), unless this is only for the Clubsport?

Totally agree, why offer it on the GTI/D and not the top of the range R?

Because they need to keep the cost down from a car which is mechanically more expensive to start with?

Agree and I suspect it has minimal effect on overall 'R' orders.

I think the gti got the extras to try and boost orders because there seem to be so few often on the roads compared to the R.
