Try one of each before buying anything. Personally I love my DSG but it's not for everyone

i was gonna get the r32...took  me about a week of trying to decide, in the end i think the gti is more tunable  on my budget.
cant wait to get  the gti.

See my thread on the CAR magazine Feb 2012 article on buying a Mk5 GTI. Some really useful stuff there.

Oh, and by the way, they recommend a cloth seated manual to get one of the best hot hatches ever!
