Love my FreeTrack. TDI goes like stink in factory form, but is surprisingly easy (and reasonably priced) to re-map. Specification is brilliant, although if you're after bluetooth, you'll still need to add a kit or, alternatively, replace the factory head unit with something else; I went for a Zenec unit, but the Dynavin stuff ain't too bad either.
Downsides? Looks are a bit Marmite, but then again, I like Marmite. It's a bit easy to get carried away; it's easy to drive enthusiastically, but when you're mid-way through a corner and only then realise that you're in something quite high, a degree of @rse nipping can occur. The Haldex propshaft coupling appears prone to failure and is fairly expensive to replace. Finally, as with all modern VAG vehicles, build quality ain't what it used to be; I don't think I'll get 250,000 miles out of it like I did with the old Audi 80, but I could say that about any modern car really.
Definitely worth considering; it's a lot of car for the money.
