Type R vs Type S

I also test drove the type R before i settled for the Type S diesel. Much as i loved the looks, the growl, the performance i couldn't justify the cost of petrol, insurance etc. It's going to get worse too. Was a no brainer.
Irony is the Type R was slightly newer, slightly less mileage and slightly cheaper to buy than my 2.2.
No regrets whatsoever. Type S is a great car and practical.
