Volkswagen’s no stranger to hot hatchbacks, with the evergreen GTi spearheading the brand’s performance offerings. However, in 2003, VW spiced the Golf GTi and debuted the Golf R32 MK4, with a stonking 3.2-litre VR6 engine, good for 241hp to all four wheels. This was followed by the R32 MK5, which ended up being rebranded as the Golf R in 2010 with the MK6 generation.
The sonorous VR6 motor gave way for a new 2.0-litre turbo four-cylinder which sent 270hp to all four corners. 0-62mph came up in a sports car rivalling 5.7 seconds. In 2014, Golf R MK7 launched pushing the envelope even further with 300hp! Fast forward to today, the Golf R has attained a cult following, thanks to its sheer speed and a capability. This is a car that you can drive daily in all weather conditions with four seats and a boot, while also showcasing performance that is usually reserved for more expensive cars. Currently the Golf R MK8 can do 0-62mph in 4.6 seconds. As a used buy, a VW Golf R might just be all the car you’ll ever need.
