Description

The 2017 Volkswagen Golf R delivers an engaging blend of performance and everyday usability. Its punchy 2.0 TSI engine and quick-shifting DSG gearbox make acceleration lively and effortless, while the R-tuned suspension and 4MOTION grip keep the car confident through corners. The steering is direct and communicative, so heavy-footed driving still feels composed without sacrificing ride comfort for daily journeys.

Inside, the cabin balances sporty intent with practical space for five and a useful boot. Supportive seats and thoughtful touches like ambient lighting and a cooled glovebox enhance longer trips, while efficient real-world economy keeps running costs reasonable. This example comes with a full service history, clear HPI check, two keys and will be supplied with a 12 month MOT.
