Yes all 2.0 are turbo now but the same approach as the older 1.8 20V - in the way the lower output cars get smaller turbo's and injectors while the R's etc get bigger turbo and injectors

The exception being the TTR which still have the 5 cylinder lump as does the RS3

Struggle to park as its so small.

One problem I had was trying to work out how to put the heated wing mirrors on. Perhaps they come on with the heated screen. I just wiped them instead.

the gti has the same engine as the r does I think but it's lower powered. They seem a decent engine anyway.

Here is some fake engine noise. Sounds like it has twin 40s on it.

if anything like the BMW's they come on below 3'C automatically

On the Audi you need to have the stick that dips in mirrors in the middle (i.e not on left or right mirror) - maybe the same for the VW

Ah perhaps that's it as I had been adjusting the mirrors yesterday. The place over the road has some autosol in stock so will go get that and then clean the exhaust pipes up a bit.

did you explore finance nic on anew one as I believe discounts are huge on the R

Just interested as sometimes its cheaper to by new than second hand - maybe not the case on the R

This was a good bit cheaper to just buy it. Spent a good bit of time looking at all the deals yeah. Still got 2 years warranty and assistance and other bits with it. Plus getting a 3dr blue dsg was going to be about 8 months wait.
