Estate, or not to Estate.

My estate runs a gti beam, the lowering kit off my 6, the same size and quality of tyres and the same front arb as well as the wheels being pretty much identical width and offset compared to my 6 so as close as you'll get to the same and you notice the difference.

Not sure how much is due to weight and how much is a difference in strength but the boot departure is the same size roughly, the rear windows are bonded and there is a d pillar roll hoop, not just a,b and c so I can't imagine it being much less strong if any.
