Well I finally decided on what to get
A MK5 Golf R32
I've always liked these and thought why not so me and the wife took a train down to manchester and drove back up with this.
Not to everyones taste (ojc ) but I love it. Its not super fast but ive done that so I was looking for something with a bit of poke when I needed it and good on a long run.
Heres a few pics and a very small sound vid
The pics are kinda shit as they aint mine lol but its gives you an idea till I take my own
The Vid

I was thinkin this.
The car looks a bit different now, its lowered 30mm and the front and rear VW badges are black with the insides the same colour as the car and the R32 grille bages is now blue as well.

They have big running costs which I can't be assed with anymore

The rear wiper is also blanked out.
I'm looking at the VMR 710 alloys which are very nice.

The White is even more hard to get hold of as only 7 were produced in that colour.

Thought they would be a bit too bling but i really like those VMR ones.
Hows the fuel bill so far? My mates got a DSG one and its shocking how much it can actually drink when it wants to

No DSG?
Least its 3 door, better have leather as there are millions of these out there to choose from.
