The Golf R is a great car. Subtle, but handsome looks, brilliant interior and the general feel of quality just shows everywhere.
Daily driving it is comfortable, beautifully equipped and rides very well.
Once you decide to give it a bit of a push and get out on some winding roads, it just completely changes. The four wheel drive system provides an astonishing amount of grip while the turbo charged 2.0L engine surges once above 3000 RPM all the way to redline. It gives you a gentle push back in the seat and it wants to get to that next corner as quick as it can. Brakes are fantastic and slow you just as quickly.
Four six feet people can sit in it in comfort without issue and the interior feels more like a luxury car then hot hatch.
This car is great. If I set the cruise at 54mph, I get 800 miles on a tank.
Its a good date mobile...Its very roomy inside, and ladies like that. Back seat has tons of leg room.
Car is very sporty to drive, change lane, curves...etc. TDI means i barely touch the throttle and get lots of torque accelleration.
huge trunk.
Cons:
Nitpicking... sunroof goes back, but stops 6 inches short of full open. Also has some silly windbreak device. This device seems to just generate noise.
Emit's high levels of pollutants
