I am 90% sure I will keep the CS and introduce a few subtle mods.
Definitely keep the CS and do a few mods.
Cheers guys, thanks so much for your valuable inputs, as much as I love the look of the TCR, I will probably put my plans on hold, first due to the fact that unless driving like a maniac I won't see much of a difference, second fact - my current gti PP is fully specced, except the leather seats which I did not want. Going to a TCR I won't afford having all the specs I have now. And lastly with the current situation with the corona virus and uncertainty in markets, probably spending more money on a new car is not wise.
Never mind the media induced zombie apocalypse, there’s absolutely no point in swapping a highly specced late model GTI for a TCR unless you’re going to be exploiting its full performance.
Buying one because you wake up one day thinking “I feel like buying one...” is a good excuse, anything involving the money aspect makes no financially justifiable sense!
There are some very attractively priced examples currently on dealer forecourts though
