Title: A drive in a R32
Post by: Rich on May 19, 2009, 09:32:25 pm: I'm really desperate to have a drive in an R32. :drool:

I just want to experience the feel and the sumptious noise of that thing !!! :drool: :drool:

Do you think the dealers might let me if i said i was interst. in buying ?

Post by: mortygttdi on May 19, 2009, 09:37:44 pm: Yes I test drove one last year when I had my Focus ST225 and said I wanted to change my focus to the R32 they bent over backwards to get one off there lot to let me have a go in it and the sales guy let me go all over the place.

Best of luck they are a very nice car.

by the way I got a sensible 27mpg and I wasn't slow with it although I wasn't booting it that much cos obviously the sales guy was next to me.

Post by: VeeDubDan on May 20, 2009, 08:41:23 am: I took a test drive in a MK5 R32 when they were first launched one Saturday just for something to do. I had no interest in buying one as I was unsure of the styling. 10 minute test drive later and the car was bought!!! :laugh: As soon as I heard the noise it made I was sold, be warned!

Post by: Aparoon on May 20, 2009, 09:23:40 am: I was the opposite to this, i test drove a dsg and a manual r32 and wasnt overly impressed with either, i expected it to be faster and it didnt sound as amazing inside? Although when i hear one drive past i still do a little sex wee :drool:

same for me, i had a MK4 1.8t GTI and wanted the MK5 golf, went to the dealers and drove the GTI and the .:R32 straight after each other and the noise of the .:R hooked me within seconds! wasn't available in Candy on its release and production run so i bought a MK4 .:R32..... then they brought out the Candy and the rest as they say....
