Just read your introduction the the Golf R forum Eddie. Great way to make an entrance ;p
Think your car looks great in that colour combo but wouldn't choose it myself. Also the wing is a weird one. In one instance I don't like it but in another I think it would look strange without one! Can't really put my finger on the indecision. Congrats anyway for getting a great car. Maybe you should keep it instead of 'upgrading'

Good cars and the engine is great too.One thing to watch though - those AMG wheels can sometimes suffer from white stains/peeling on the polished front surface. Keep an eye on them and make sure you take then back to the dealer for warranty repair if you see any signs. Keep them clean and avoid acidic wheel cleaner.
Whilst I was in the dealership a couple of weeks ago, there was a guy in having all four replaced under warranty with the problem, as well as corroded MB logo centre caps. Just one to watch.
Oh, and don't let any diesel drip on the polished face of the wheel when filling up. We picked up recently a new GL350 with similar wheels and it stained the wheel within five minutes! Replaced under warranty ...

It feels really wide at the moment but, I guess, I'll get used to it.
Wallows quite a bit too but the engine is great and it's a lovely place to be.
And yes I do miss the C4...

Sounds good :-)Mines the 220 as well.
To be honest I'm concerned it'll feel sluggish, I'm a moderately paced driver at best day to day but I do like the performance to be there just in case so we will see.
The lease deal on a 250 was quite a bit more.
I've had no options fitted but it has heated seats, Comand and all round parking sensors with a self park facility which will be interesting so I'm happy with the spec.
