Long term lurker on these boards but never posted until now as looking for some advice.

Anyway, I'm really interested in this car and about to pull the trigger. I know most reviews say the price is too close to the Golf R but the discounts I am finding make this almost £7k cheaper than the Golf when options are specified the same. For this price, is there any reason why I should not be choosing this car over the R?

Only if your a badge snob.

Order now in. £29k including full leather, pro nav, sound system high, pano roof, advanced comfort and driving pack 2, kessy, wireless charging, camera pack. Once you take into account options, this car is much cheaper than the Golf R. 14 week wait now...

Negatives

- It's too close in price to the R, given it will depreciate quickly
- Why no 18" wheel option? Not everyone wants 19's

First negative is a positive for me
If it loses 50% of the list price in the first few years I'm all for it.
As for the wheels - that is a bummer on UK roads. One hope is that the wheels are made well and won't buckle and split on the potholes.
