In looking at the UK prices and comparing to US

The M240 in UK is almost 36k UK Pound

Sells for 44k in the US

The M140 in UK is 31,800 UK Pound which would put it into a price range of the VW R......which it would blow out of the water....and have more interior room

Its smaller brother with a B46 would blow the GTI out of the water as well as the Mini.....which is more likely the issue
