Welcome to the forum.

Get the VR I version and save the 100euros.

The reasoning is that there isn't enough of a difference between those lenses to pay extra. And as others have suggested, you will end up wanting another lens... this way you have 100euros towards it!

I agree with the assessment that the 18-105 is a much better lens. But apart from that, the extra reach beyond 55mm is much more versatile. For example you can take much better portraits at 100mm than 55mm.

So even if you don't swop the 18-55 for an 18-105 at some stage you will want extra mm reach in some lens or another.
