Specs are: Rising Blue, 5 dr, DSG, Leather, 19" Rims, Sunroof & i-pod connection, things like front and rear parking sensors, Bi Xenon's etc are all standard.
Yeah i drove a manual & an auto 135i at a local dealership. It is a very impressive car no doubt's and quicker in a straight line than the Golf but at the end of the day a few things helped me with my decision.
Firstly the fact that the Golf has 5 doors, i kept telling myself 2 doors would be fine but with 2 young kids i think that eventually it would become a pain.
Secondly for the price of a pretty well specced up Golf R i could of really only been able to afford a 2008 135i. That would mean only approx 1 year left of the warranty and on a car i plan on keeping for at least 5 years that may become an issue.
Then there was insurance, was getting quotes of double that of the R due to the 135i being a '2dr sports coupe'

Enjoy the new wheels when they arrive, I'm sure it'll be an enjoyable ride
