A month or so ago i went to a black tie charity event supporting a good cause. As per normal they hold an auction of donated prizes of which i won four. 2 were porsche related , one was super car related the last was the use of a golf r for a weekend courtesy of vw dealer.
We picked the car up last friday dinner time and was not expecting much 5 door DSG
But by the end of sunday afternoon and 280 miles later , we were asking for a price on the demo car.
We have had plenty of hatches in the past from Renaultsport , Peugeot , Ford , VW etc
But the Golf R just ssemed to be a great allrounder, it was not the fastest car i have ever driven, nor the best handling. But it just seemed to be a mighty appealing package. I cant really describe what it is but its was just very good allround. The infotainment system was great compared to my new merc ( which is utter shite by any standard) , the dsg box was so smooth.
Anybody run one of these or have tried one ?
