You must tell us how it compares with your Mk6 GTI, Steve.

Someone must like you at your dealership :grin: That looks mean, I think that's the first time I've see a MK6 and liked the look of it.

A review will be on way as soon as I get some time.
This is a very nicely speced DSG model :happy2:
-
Very nice... im not keen on the black wheels... doesnt look right :stupid:
Golf R for a loan car :surprised: :surprised: i got a Fox 1.4 at VW Hudds :signLOL:
-
how on earth did u manage to get that as a loan car for 2 weeks?
fishy...... :grin:
-
I am with Rich wheels suck, it has no presence also. You see a R32 coming you know its a R32, you see a R and you think oh another GT.
-
Nice loaner Steve :drool:
I personally like the black wheels too :smiley:

^ Any better? (also DSG)
-
they prolly need to have a high gloss kinda finish instead of matt ish to pull off the black wheels look.
-
black wheels on the black R looks better... BUT... the black R... its hard to tell its R as as everything is black and it disguises its features... (if that makes sense)
I think the Golf R is best in Blue with Silver 19" Wheels

....Makes perfect sense. When I fist saw this black R sideways-on, I just thought it was a Mk5 with aftermarket wheels.
-
How many Gammy's did you have to give to get that as a Courtesy car?! :signLOL: As already said the best I've had lately was a 1.2 Fox Urban :driver: Rapid :grin:
-
You Jammy sod!! :evilgrin:
-
I did once blag a leon cupra as a courtesy car when my ibiza cupra was in. Not quite an R tho.
-
would that be a step down though :grin: :grin:
-

You have a point. First saw this post on my iphone and thought the Golf was a GD :confused:
-
Not a fan of the white but as a loaner I wouldn't say no.
My Golf .:R colours would be blue with the black 19"s. :wink:
-
Cant knock it as a loan car, but it just doesn't 'pop' for me. If I was to buy I think my money would be on the Scirocco R. In Black it just looks like a standard Golf.
-
Whats wrong with your car steve, if you have this for 2 weeks??
-
Can i be the one to ruin this thread please. :jumping:
Ok here goes.
How come all the people who cant afford a golf R havn't said "yeh! but its to expensive, you could get a Zonda for that money".
This statement is for all the people ( and you know who you are ) who reply to my statement of fact. :grin: and who have ruined countless threads with there bitterness, not being able to afford one. :signLOL:
Everybody knows they are toooo expensive, but me thinks you doth protest to much. :innocent: :P
Ok lets see who's first to bite. :pomppomp: Will it be Oli, Mat or VC. :rolleye:
-
Loving that Steve, they do look loads better in the flesh and 3 door white or silver FTW! :happy2:
-
^^^^
Well I'm one of the guys here who has always been positive and expressed liking the Golf R inspite of other's price criticisms. I think that white suits the car, and the blue, but not keen on the glossy black though. I reckon an anthracite colour might suit the wheels. I hope I may get a test drive one day.
I'm not jealous, Steve! :wink: - A fortnight is a good solid time to get to know the car.
-
I'm pretty sure I know who's the car is and why Steve has it... :booty: :booty: :booty:
Regarding the car, I have taken the Golf R with a pinch of salt until I saw a white one with the black 19's on Youtube the other week and have to admit I did a little sex wee.. Still to expensive though ( eh TC :wink:)
-
^^^ Yes you do, and I think you will like the choice you made for yours :wink: :grin:
-

I do hope so mate. It does look mint I know that.. :drool: Oh and mum's the word don't worry.. :wink: :grin:
-
Tc I will bite I could buy that car tomorrow with every option but I just think it's a bland and just another hatch back in a long line of dull hatchbacks :popcornsoda: Sorry it does nothing for me :booty:
-
I hate not knowing what's going on here Steve and Ben for that matter, something fishy is going on and I don't like it! :signLOL: I am sure I will find out at Inters!
Lovely loaner Steve, having seen the exact same colour scheme the other day they do look lovely in the flesh! :party:
It's a lot better than my poverty spec A3 sportback loaner im rocking at the mo :sick:
-
well after Ben's post quick looky at some tuners and oh one of them has a brand new Golf R in white with black wheels! :signLOL:
guess Steve's having a special bit made for his GTI then. :happy2:
-
i have to say, white on black looks good to me :happy2: good thing about having a renault is they give you a kangoo courtesy car!! ikea and tip it is :signLOL:

We've been rumbled Steve, Chungster's seen that TSW have a new demo car.. :sad1:
-
looks like millteks to me
-
they always have nice loan cars don't they for people...RR had the S4 Avant didn't he?
anyone had their R8 as loan car yet?
-
cant see them loaning the r8 can you :laugh: and thought you fell out with milltek Steve ?
-
^^^ never fell out with them just voice concerns about issues I had on the Mk5 systems, thses have now been addressed with some major investments by Milltek.
Yes it's Millteks car, they don't have the R8 anymore IIRC they replaced it with a TT-RS :smiley:

IMHO, this is what makes R cars great. It's also why I wanted a grey/silver R32 rather than a DBP one. Harder to tell at a glance that it's 'special'. I love the sleeper aspect. My R with be grey with silver 19"s

I love the Golf R.... i dont think its over priced... VW have priced it 30-40k for a reason... and i think its a good reason...
If it was cheaper... i think everyone would be swapping for a Golf R and then owning a Golf R isn't so special after all...
-

Thats the positive I think about the higher price, it will remain that bit more exclusive for longer.
Can be disheartening sometimes seeing every tom dick and harry with the same car as you
-
I had a feeling it was Miltek's as the dealer told me they had ordered one when I had a test drive in their demo - not the kind of demo car most average dealers would have now is it...
Hmm, I wonder how long they'll keep it - will certainly have a decent exhaust once they have done.
-
I've been promised a Mk6 GTI when my R goes in for DSG surgery week after next.
