Nope... the fact that the GTI is still available in both means the GTI has the prize in that area SilvrFoxX

Funny no one is complaining.. if anyone has 3 v 4 door model sales it would tell you what the reality is.Nope... the fact that the GTI is still available in both means the GTI has the prize in that area SilvrFoxX
But to be sure this isn't taken out of context this is not one is better than the other question just a reality check on the real demand

Sure people are complaining...
With the R32, around 1/4 of them were 3 doors from memory. With the R it is less, as there are more and more drivers from Japanese and Australia brands purchasing them and Australia is always about more is better. Whilst it's been discussed to death, I can say with 100% certainty that I would not own a 5 door Golf R. Which is why VW bought in the 3 door for a while

Yeah I/we all know.. but the reverse is true for the 4/5 door owners so your point is moot. Whilst it's been discussed to death, I can say with 100% certainty that I would not own a 5 door Golf R. Which is why VW bought in the 3 door for a while

My point isn't mute at all. BOTH should be available. They're not on the R. So the GTI is better as both are available - giving choice to the purchaser.

What is a 4 door golf? Is it not a Jetta?

Awesome! My MKV is better than a Golf R as well then as it is cheaper and is a 4 door

After having owned 3 door hatchbacks and 2 door coupes my entire driving life - i wanted to get rid of the big heavy doors and non-practical entry to the rear seats for any passengers.
That was my main reason for choosing the 5 door. And if i decide to start a family in a few years then the car will still be practical - whereas a 3 door wouldn't be.
Furthermore, my house has a relatively skinny driveway and garage so the smaller doors are much easier to live with on a daily basis - getting in and out etc.
