It's a nice car, granted. But if I had 42 grand to buy a car...


You assume he paid all of that for it.  :wink:

 :notworthy:

10 grand discount?

Id take the datsun I'm afraid. It would make the golf R look like a toy in a race


Unfortunately I'm at an age where versatility is sexy.

I'd have a Golf R over a Datsun.

+1.

I wouldn't spend 42k on one though. Seen them for 23K used though. That's a cracking deal.

Fun Golf: 2016 mk7 R DSG 3 door. Work Golf: 2015 mk7 1.4 TSI GT ACT 5 door.
Gone but not forgotten : mk2 Golf GTI 16v, mk4 Golf V6 4Motion, mk5 GTI Storm Developments Stage 1, mk5 GTI Revo Stage 1, BMW 330ci, Skoda Octavia VRS Revo Stage 2, BMW Z4 Sdrive35i.

why is it the moment a golf R gets mentioned the price tag arguement gets dusted off  :sleepy:

Exactly VC. My mate came round today and irrespective of whether it was a Golf or something else it was a special event.  :happy2:

Clearly lots of people think it is relevant. I don't personally.

Er because it's massively overpriced? 42 grand is just insane for a Golf.

You should have seen the faces on the local chav fest bolting the worlds biggest sub into the back of a Saxo round the corner.  :signLOL:

Bit of a long story but my mate popped round this evening with his new wheels.

Absolutely stunning following it's new car prep at Valet Magic. iPhone pics but you get the idea.  :drool:

All the toys bar a sunroof. He let me drive but with only 44 miles on the clock I took it steady. Love it.  :ashamed:

Superb car in it's own right - however it's no C5 RS6 and I know from other threads Hedge that's where your 'love' actually lies  :laugh:
