HUD, 10k+ rpm's (even with less torque) and I'd be first in line for a new model.

2.2 litres, more torque (8k revs ), some bigger wheels, and a shiny radio cover? Forget it (don't fix what ain't broke!)

I think it might loose out against 248lb/ft of torque and 160bhp in a 100kg lighter car riding on 225/45/17 rubber unless the s2k driver was on top form and driving harder than most. Might come along to a scot meet and see once it's run in.
My next door neighbour has a Cupra R 225; sorry to disappoint you but you don't have any chance of catching an S that is trying. Unless of course the extra weight of the diesel engine over the front wheels actually helps them point in the direction you are turning the steering wheel AND you get it REVO'd.
