Looks very similar to mk6 R at the front and of course at the rear. Love it. Such a shame mk7 has lost that centre exhausts.

The problem with centre pipes is that you can't fit a tow bar.
Everyone has been complaining since the Mk4 R32 that they couldn't tow anything so they had to go with an s3 instead.
They finally move the exhausts and peope complain it has lost it's "look"

A tow bar is not an option on the golf r even when they do release the genuine one for the rest of the golf range...

Really wish I bought the R.
Don't really want to fork out another 10k and another 5 month wait.
Hopefully the mk8 R

Hi All, test drove the R on Saturday and was pretty impressed, but one thing that sticks in my head was after about 10 minutes (I dont think the car was dead cold when i 1st got in it though) the oil temp was reading 107................ive never seen that on my mk6 GTI !!
Anyway, I was offered a $33000 changeover on a stock R with DSG. I didnt haggle at all as i could sense that they werent discounting at all.........yet !..............so im still driving my GTI.

I went with Allianz. They didn't have it in their system either. Agreed to manually adjust the policy to reflect the 2014 model until the full details were available. $808 I think it was
