Golf R observation for the day

Children are too young to own a Golf R

Yep, and too young to post on the forum, with classics like "I poo on citroen" there should be a minimum age limit to who posts here .

I don't know what's more impressive - getting an R or reading through this entire thread

I bought one they had in stock , RB DSG, ACC ,19's silver , Sat Nav for 58000 . Gave up a lovely Alfa 75 that was starting to give me grief

The demo I took for a test drive had all that (oh, inc sunroof) with a 70K price tag on it I kid you not. I asked the dealer CCC why it was so expensive, they said because we can sell it at that! =-O :O mine was 58k but no DSG,ACC, 19"...(not a fan of 19" as it is too easy to trash a rim with ****ty NSW roads, I managed to trash two 17" rims on my WRX in a mother of a pothole).

Yes well it seems to be the case all over Australia that the roads are terrible , but I've seen some shockers up here in north Queensland and have yet to have a bad run in. The asking price was 64,000 for my car and i really didn't do alot to get them down , seems i did well though!

So, have you guys christened the front bumper yet ?

[Frogman85]

Ohhh such a heartbreak... I did two nice scrapes in the first two weeks and I learnt very quick after that . Luckily they are not visible from the front unless you are crouched down!
