Thanks for all the replies folks; lots of valid feedback.
I do about 30k miles a year so the 2.2 is a must really due to the fuel consumption otherwise the Type R would be on the shopping list. Looks are a personal thing I know, but i'm not that keen on the clear front hence the TR grill.
Interesting feedback about the ipod connection. As it's a company car i'm not supposed to do any alterations other than standard accessories, so I guess I might just have to put up with it.
