    VXR Red No More-Written Off !

    If i was looking ATM, it would be the new Golf R20 or the Focus RS.

    Audi S3 would be a possible starter but too expensive from new for what you get when compared to the Golf.

    All good suggestions but bear in mind the car is really for my girlfriend I still have my Blue VXR.
    So I really do not want to spend 60k on hers !

    i dont know how soon u are looking to buy... but VW have no statuatory charges til the end of the month on all new cars, so u only have to pay the ticket price of the car, then all on roads and delivery charges are free... but then again, this only gives u until the end of the week lol

    Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.

    This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....

    New Alfa Romeo Giulietta anyone ?? being studying that new hot hatch myself lately, nevdr been much of a fan of Alfas before but this one's very nice all things considered Click here to enlarge

    I'd choose the new Megane RS250 over the Gti anyday (unless you must have a twin clutch) - or if you can step up in price point, the Golf R would be the pick of the hatches, most reviews rank it over even the pricier Audi S3...

    If your on the cheap, a brand new Focus XR5T for under 33k drive away is the best thing going, ie. before they're all gone Click here to enlarge

    That very quickly becomes at least 45-47k with a decent fit out though...

    The bare bones 39k drive away package is a real un attractive povo pack...you'll be over 40k just getting rid of those stupid looking tartan cloth seats !

    Just come back from a test drive in the Audi........mmmmmmmm!
