Been out in a Golf R
MAT ED30:
i am a huge golf gti fan as i have had them all but this is not a gti its an R so not a gti :P its the new r32 as such but they had to drop the ed30 engine in due to climate change and all that :smiley: its not a car for me as its going down that dull look of just blending in to everything else in the car park and for £40k i would want everyone to look at it go WOW i like that :drool: this just is never going to get it and maybe people like bland looking cars but for me its got to say something and this does not say anything at all to me.

German cars, and VAG Group cars in particular are quite dull cars though. Nothing would surprise me more than VW producing a widely provocative car. They sell them on other qualities, just as Ford and Renault sell their cars on differing qualities.
If you're waiting for a VW or Audi that will make you go WOW, then I think you'll be waiting a long time!

Everyone has different tastes Matt. Some people prefer the car to look less in your face, rather then the Focus RS look where you cant miss it coming down the road, or the Sound of a Suburu coming down the road from 200 yards away. Not everyone likes to be Noticed.
We all have different tastes, and in my oppinion If this same car was less money (say 30K full spec) then im sure that you and quite a few others would be not dissing this car and saying its a backward step.
I would think my car with 4 wheel drive,re- mapped would be an absolute animal! , and would love to test it out.
The current R is also dull to look at compared to the GTi. They havent had trouble selling R32's have they because they look dull???
I think the Golf R is another step foward with more power on tap, cheaper to run and Tax then its predesessor.
I hope one day i can afford one. No Question , id swop mine tommorow for one.
MAT ED30:
the thing with the r32 is it looks classy and it just looks bang on pure and simple but the golf r i am just not sure on as the r32 was a great car and fully loaded did not cost 40k so i just dont get the Golf R and the r32 has the noise too :evilgrin: but as we all say it would be boring if we all liked the same bland cars :grin:
