Golf R -v- Golf GTI

[sh|tbmxrider]

That's because they are a rubbish car!

Maybe it's time to start issuing infractions for people who can't even read the thread title and keep bringing up crap cars from crappy manufacturers

God bless Corey....

I have lost count the amount of times reference to that French POS gets posted up in this thread....Indeed the the thread title says it all

i think renault paid large sums of cash to bribe the motor journos to award those wins

go figure that in europe, the gti always trumps all and the megane never gets a mention

To the rest: The lady doth protest too much, methinks.... (

FWIW, the Megane RS is a great car, very very entertaining, moreso than the GTI & R in my own driving experiences.

Infact, it ran my current car close to winning a spot in my driveway. GTI & R, whilst nice, competent, lovely, all that.. Not a patch. Even with my 'working for a VW-owned company' discount, they still weren't in the final running.

In the end, each to there own. I bought what I bought, due to it tickling my pickle the most.

Handing out infractions/bans for mentioning a different(and/or better, depending on what you want out of it) brand car ain't going to help the wider view of GTI/R owners in the community

Its no use CM.... its called justification for their purchase.

Seems that way Fab.

Back on topic, if I can remember what it was after all that trash talk

I am so bloody happy I went with the R over the GTI. The car continues to impress, especially in this wet weather.

Our MKV pales into insignificance. The one redeeming feature of the GTI was its ability to be a little more nimble. However, the rest is overwhelmingly in favor of the R

Oh boo hoo.

Strange, that is exactly what it looks like you guys are doing!

As fun as this is, I better stop before one of you gets real stroppy and reports me...!

I doubt that I would buy a Renault in the near future, but I would certainly not class Renault as a crappy manufacturer

RS250 ****s on the VW's for driving connection/thrills and cornering ability, we should all know that.
But you dont spend every minute on a race track or twisty road do you... however; if I lived near the village of Nurburg I would have bought an RS250.

Bet this thread causes plenty of people to gain weight given all the popcorn needed. It's WJ's fault....
