The Flavor-Flav style emblem on the Countryman is just one reason why its boot is really ugly. The Clubman barn doors are unique, practical, and sexy.

 

I eat GTIs as snacks before 350zs for dinner. Be unique. They are harder to modify but neither are cheap to play with. Plus with the access port out now, tuning has become WAY easier. Insurance is cheaper. I've driven a four door APR stage 3 (full kit) 2009 gti and enjoy my car WAY more. The APR car is a lil faster but fun to drive an response goes to my mini.

 

Hello all, also test drove not the GTI but the Golf TDI. I liked it a lot but coming from a magnificent winning blue Mazda3 the VW color choices of white, silver or black were a real downer.

Ended up with a chili red/black clubman. Not quite as practical, but my tools fit perfectly in the boot and it's still big enough to fit the large items I need to haul occasionally.
