If you want something to compete with the eddy in terms of being special and rare then the MK6 R in good condition and a desirable colour red/ white is probably the one of the three that's going to come closest. The RS3 is too boring to look at and the 7R is well.... Just another 7R
The RS3 has the most potential as a driving machine as the 5pot is a peach of an engine and you could make a real monster with a few quid.
The 7R is probably the best all round though, great value, very quick without spending much and the newest of the three and personally I love the MK7 interior. Thing is with some springs and some different wheels you can still make the 7R stand out more from the others and people will know you're an enthusiast and not just an insurance rep :signLOL:
Good luck :happy2:

Is it rwd?i hear that the DCT is very good on them

RWD but not DCT. It's the 8 speed ZF auto, which is almost as quick as DCT.

For me it has the engine and the handling. The looks you either like it or not. I wouldn't say no to one. :smiley:
I don't like the look of the BMW's interior, though. Too dated.
