The HSVs won based on what the sheep and followers wanted. Even though in many cases the Tickford was the better car to drive.
I may be biased but the XR5 turbo was every bit as good as a GTi

The R36 is basically the bigger and faster GTi.
If it wasn't for the awesome interior and great exhaust note I'd agree.
The GTi a very safe choice with excellent resale.
As for which id pick out of GTi or XR5 - neither as I'm not a hatch fan (as not useful for me), but I'd have the latter ahead.
VWs are overpriced. However not close to some other Germans that are WAY overpriced (BMW 3 series and Audi A4 exhibit 1)
