But its horses for courses and many people don't like the Civic. I didn't keep the GTI long at all, the new R was a breath of fresh air and it showed me what I really wanted from a car, so it made my mind up for me.
I got the same feeling when i tested the GTi before the CTR. Maybe it's because i had 2 VW Bora's before, it felt very similar sitting in the GTi.
I tested a demo fully loaded with DSG too and it was not a good feeling.
