My car is actually a Golf R but that is not listed so the R32 is the nearest as the new R is its replacement. The DSG gearbox is amazing, responsive and can be driven in Auto or maual with the flappy paddles or by toggling the gear lever. The performance is excellent and acceleration terrific, yet you can cruie around in the R and still have all the acceleration needed for a safe overtake. The 4 wheel drive ensures the car is sure fotted and holds the road brilliantly, however the car only handles as good as the drivers ability. The R is not for a novice although the braking is phenominally good. An all round 'drivers car.'

An excellent 5 door hatchback with perfomance in mind. Petrol consumption depends on the use of "sport" or lower gears and can be up to 33mpg on along run but average is around 24mpg. Wonderful DSG gearbox effortless and smooth around town but can really come alive when using sport mode or paddles. Best car in a series of Golfs I have ever had.
