Mk7 Golf R Discussion Thread

Chasing a good deal on a White Golf R with DAP and Leather if anyone knows where I can score a good deal

Got a good deal on mine through Robina VW. Give Michael Goldsworthy a call - reckon he will help you out - good bloke to deal with and no BS at all.

Dad had a WRX then an STi. Both on my recommendation. Both brilliant cars. Unfortunately Europe caught up with Mitsubishi and Subaru. Not sure if we'll see another Evo and the "new" Rex is generations behind anything from Europe now AND for a similar price. Who would buy an STi over the near perfect Golf R now!?

I think it was posted before is a review of the STI and the Golf R

Hey Mikey1, understand the insurance co will own it and it will go to auction. All the interior was good, nav, leather seats etc (apart from airbag deployment ) and 3 of the wheels so it would worth something.

Andrew, I believe this is your car? (Anyone who's sensitive to graphic images of damaged Rs: viewer discretion is advised!)

Yep Adam, well spotted that's it! Not a bad buy with only 2,000km on the clock Ah well, I'm grateful to have walked away in one piece and now looking forward to my Pure White R

[irossiter]

2000kms only and a one owner vehicle! Tell me the cup holders aren't that good!?

[donweather]

Is that your water bottle still in the centre console?

[andrew7]

^ lol yes Don, clearly cleaning the car prior to auction not a priority!

[Ryan_R]

Haha nope. (That said the cars of those who turn up at the auction aren't that much better). My car actually came from Pickles

Does anyone know, if any, differences exist between the MY14 and MY15?
