Slower, less desirable and worse on fuel than the anni..... Congrats mate
Looks good though
Completely different cars to drive, both with power delivery and handling
Prefer the delivery of 6cylinders over 4 cyl turbos and i'm only doing a couple of Mpg worse than the anni atm. 200 miles and not down to half a tank yet.
Had the choice of another turbo or a V6, drove the V6 and it sold itself.

what do you think of haldex/quattro? i loved it on my tt but apperntly you are 50 times more likely to have an accident with haldex

Maybe anni or R32 front if the bits come up at the right price, but wont be hunting for them as I'm not really a hardcore modder anymore.
Really like it, Love the amount of grip around corners, need some less chunky tyres though.
probably 50 times more likely because people think they're invincible

Know what you mean, the main cars i've missed are the Mk4, Mini and the bimmer, the others were great cars but didn't really do anything for me. wanted another mark4 and preferred this to a tubby once i'd driven it. Enjoying it so far and its doing fine on the amber nectar
John you shoulda bought the anni!

should last longer than a turbo, engines are great and easily reach 200,000miles with no issues and 10k servicing
