New toy to accompany the Aston
Discussion
Just picked up a rather nice VW Golf R 32 for my daytime pleasure......goes like stink and great fun to drive.....very close snappy 6 speed box........fantastic quality feel to the cabin, much better than that crappy 3 series stratstone lent me a couple of weeks ago........Aston has a small oil leak again, Alan from Stratstone has arranged collection on Monday, my last claim under warranty !

You'll soon get tired of the uber-smooth gear changes, every tom dick and harry that wants a race, oh and the road tax charge for a Golf! Yes, I still have the T-shirt
Yep it's the normal chain cover leak.......it's very small and you would never know about it as it drips onto the trays.......it was picked up at the service a few weeks ago.......I'm now out of warranty
Yes £460 road tax for the Golf
£260 for the Aston
A little irritating ......but it's only money
It's been an expensive week......bought some art on Thursday.....new car on Friday.......and worse is to come.....off to comet for a new tumble dryer today......o the excitement !!

Have a VR6, they're reliable... about all I can say really, not nearly as fast as it should be. Would like a punt in an R32, I like the looks, the classier end of hot hatches certainly.
Semi-replaced it (i.e. still have both) with a 3.2 V6 Alfa GT, it is not reliable but it is nicer to drive IMHO, feels a bit more special for a runabout.

Hey Michael
I came from an R32 before the vantage. I was sad to see it go and would love to get one again some time down the road. It never missed a beat and was just awesome in the wet and had the most wonderful V6 growl, Hope you got the deep blue colour.. All the best and enjoy, don't forget to find a carpark when the ice and snow comes to have a little spin around :-)
