Ride quality Golf GTi vs Golf R?
Discussion
I am looking at getting an R Estate 
Nothing available to test drive at my local dealer so I drove pre facelift GTi PP DSG which was on 18" rims. I really liked the car (unaccompanied and long drive!) and found the ride quality to be absolutely fine. I then tried an Octavia vRS DSG hatch on 19s and the ride was definitely a bit too choppy on some of our typical road surfaces. Both had no DCC. I know the R has stiffer springs than the GTi so my question is how will a non-DCC R on 18" Cadiz wheels ride relative to the two cars I test drove? (I have picked too many options and wonder if I can save the £830 that DCC costs!)
