Arrow How does the 1 Series stack against the GTI?

I'm coming out of a GTI lease in a month or so, and I'm looking for something a bit faster

I've been on a few test drives of the 2011 135i, and it's a lovely car and deathly quick. The 135 definitely fills the requirements of being nicer and faster than the GTI.

Recently though, I've been wondering about the 135i's slower brother: the 128i. Any anecdotal evidence/experience on how the 128i compares versus the GTI?

I should probably mention that my GTI is Stage 1, so it's about 220hp and a wonderful daily driver
